Hosting an event
Online or offline, individual or team, your fundraiser can be as simple or as exciting as you want to make it. The first step is to check out our registration information.
Then, here are some tips to turn up your donations:

GET THE BOSS ON BOARD
You’ll be amazed how much this helps your fundraising efforts
CHALLENGE OTHERS
Challenge other workmates, or even neighbourhood businesses to take part in Loud Shirt Day and compete to see who raises the most money.
MATCH GIVING
Ask your employer and workmates if they will match your fundraising total, dollar for dollar.
THINK BIG AND SMALL
Give people a range of options on how they can contribute and get more people on board. If it's a bake sale, sell $2 biscuits and $50 cakes. If it's a raffle, set tiers of prizes.
CREATE ADD-ONS
Sell refreshments at your event or even run a raffle – ask friends or family to donate items, or perhaps your boss will donate something exciting as a prize.
COLLECT LOOSE CHANGE
Label up an old jam jar and put it at the end of your desk to gather everyone’s loose change.
CELEBRATE MILESTONES
Create an entertaining way to mark your fundraising achievements.
Sending in your donations
So you’ve raised a few laughs, possibly a few eyebrows, but most importantly some lovely life-changing cash. Here’s how to hand it in so we can put it to work.
ONLINE FUNDRAISING
Funds raised through your online page will automatically get directed to us, which means you don’t have to do anything. Your supporters will be emailed a receipt when they make a donation to your page.

Alternatively, it's OK with us if you want to keep it all offline.
