David Runs The London Marathon For Charlotte's Smiles 


ORGANISE A FUNDRAISING EVENT:

There are lots of ways to raise money. If you are a fundraiser or an enthusiastic supporter of Charlottes Smiles here are some ideas:

Be brave and do a parachute jump – Thanks Simon

Run a marathon : Thanks Dave – look out for Dave’s pictures later this year

Have your hair cut for money: -Thanks Joanne The hair will be sent to another charity to be made into wigs for children with cancer. Minimum 10 inches needed for this one.

Organise a Spring or Autumn Fair: - Thanks Lisa

Organise a themed evening event such as the sound of Music, Grease or Abba:- thanks Lisa
Watch out for Lisa’s Abba night in September

Book a local hall and get your friends and family to buy stalls. There are lots of organisations who will buy a stall and give some commission. Ask businesses for raffle and tombola prizes. Ask for unwanted Christmas presents from work colleagues.

Give money instead of Christmas cards.

Hold a coffee morning and raffle.

Hold a charity bingo, psychic, domino, crib, whist or beetle drive, or casino night

Loads of ideas just email for more

Contact us for more ways to help or to discuss your idea. charlottes.smiles2@gmail.com


FUNDRAISING GROUPS

Fundraising groups are made up of enthusiastic supporters who don’t have time to organise things by themselves. The whole group share the work load and that way lots of money can be raised.

We would like to invite you to join one of our Fundraising groups. Or start your own. Any level of help is appreciated. Current fund raising groups are in Hinckley and Coalville, we welcome new fund raisers please contact us for more details charlottes.smiles2@gmail.com.

OR

If you are a fundraiser (or know of active fundraisers) and are sympathetic to our cause maybe you could consider us for your next event or tell someone about us. Thank You.


VOLUNTEERING
Help is often needed with some of the events organised by individuals or groups. If you have any spare time and would like to be asked on a casual basis to come along to an event to help for the day. No other commitment necessary. For example

Selling raffle tickets before Christmas.
Standing at a stall at a spring or autumn fair.
Selling balloons at a carnival.
Taking money for pony rides

If you can help please contact us. charlottes.smiles2@gmail.com

‘Charlotte's Smiles' wants to give children with cancer more things to look forward to, to help them through the hard times; and something to smile about when they feel well.

We also hope we can in some small way ease the pressure on families who are working hard to support the child's treatment.
