Fundraising to Make a Difference
Want to help us fight osteosarcoma but not sure where to start? Whether you’re an individual, group, or business, there are countless ways to raise vital funds that support groundbreaking research and patient care.
Here are some ideas to get you inspired:
Facebook Birthday Fundraiser
A birthday you’ll never forget!
Your next birthday could do more than mark another year. It could help bring us closer to a cure for osteosarcoma. By setting up a Facebook Fundraiser, you can invite friends and family to donate instead of buying gifts. It’s quick, easy, and every pound raised will support life-saving research and patient care.
How it works:
1. Go to Facebook Fundraisers.
2. Select The Bardo Foundation as your cause.
3. Set your goal and share your story.
4.Invite friends to donate and share.
Host an Event
Unleash your inner organiser!
Fill a table with homemade cakes, brownies, or biscuits and host a bake sale of coffee morning.
Set yourself a sponsored challenge. Cycle at dawn, swim until your arms complain, or hike a hill that looked smaller on the map. Every mile raises awareness as well as funds.
Bring people together in the evening with a quiz night or games night. A little friendly competition, a lot of laughter, and a powerful cause at the centre.
Or host a charity dinner, film night, or garden gathering. Invite friends, ask for a small donation to attend, share why the cause matters to you, and turn a simple get-together into something that genuinely changes lives.
Get Creative
Host an art sale or small auction, showcasing your own work or donated pieces and inviting supporters to bid for a good cause.
Share your skills through a craft workshop or class. Teach painting, knitting, cooking, or photography, and raise funds through a small participation fee.
Bring people together with a talent show, live music night, or open-mic event. Charge for tickets and create a memorable evening with purpose.
Try something different with a charity raffle, film night, or pop-up market. Simple ideas, shared locally, can make a powerful impact.
Online Fundraising
Create or join virtual challenges that let supporters take part from anywhere, turning steps, miles, or moments into meaningful donations.
Set up a crowdfunding page and share your story with friends, family, and colleagues. A clear goal and personal message can help your reach travel far beyond your immediate circle.
Sell for charity by donating items through online platforms or hosting a digital sale. From clothing to collectibles, everyday items can be transformed into vital funds.
You could also host a virtual quiz, online class, or livestream event, bringing people together remotely for a shared purpose.
