Our Street and Door-to-Door Fundraisers
Consistent and predictable income
Face-to-face fundraising is one of the best ways for us to raise awareness of the critical work that happens in the hospitals, and the funds needed to support that work, through the support of committed monthly donors. It is a well-established activity that many established charities are using.
This type of giving ensures that we have consistent and predictable income to look after sick children and their families. This means we can plan efficiently and have the security and income to continue to fund cutting–edge research into childhood illness, new and emerging services, and vital daily comforts and supports for patients and their families.
