Sponsorship and donations
Fundraising ideas
MAKE A DONATION- 94.2% of our expenditure in 2006-7 went on the direct delivery of our charitable services.
OYT South is putting together a pack of small-scale fundraising ideas suitable for young people who are trying to pay for their own voyages, or for local support groups or others who would like to sponsor a local young person to sail, or an item at the refit.
These ideas include:
- A guide to selling unwanted items on e-Bay
- Raising funds with a supper club
- Imaginative sponsored events
- Get a group of people to auction their time or special skills: you can offer real work, like a morning’s DIY or gardening, or just offer something you enjoy and are good at but which other people might not be able to do - from a tutorial on how to reach the next level of your favourite computer game, to an hour’s flower-arranging, or cooking a special meal.
- Run an event in your office, school or college – collect photos of everyone as babies and then charge people to enter a competition to guess who they are
Please send in your ideas to the webmaster, or stories of how you raised money, and we’ll feature the best ones on this page.
