Fundraise

Fundraising does wonders for rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming thousands of animals every year. If you would like to hold your own event in aid of the RSPCA Scarborough & District Branch please let us know so that we can try to help as much as we can.

By raising money for us, you’ll join animal lovers from across the nation, determined to stop animal cruelty and neglect. Together, our voice will be stronger and more powerful than ever.

This is your chance to feel great, get fit, have fun and be creative with Team Animal.

Take a look at our amazing list of ideas. We've got all sorts of fantastic ideas - so what are you waiting for? Find your inspiration.

Fundraising ideas
Ideas of ways to raise money for charity can be difficult to come up with. Take a look through some of ours - who knows? They could just be the key to sparking the super fundraiser in you!

Cake sale
The key to a great bake sale is to recruit your bakers early and ask them to bring variety to the table. You can set out your pricing from the start or ask your buyers to donate what they feel their treat is worth. You could even raise the stakes by selecting a winner at the end, Great British Bake Off style! Or add in a competition element where people pay to guess the weight of a cake to try and win it.

Give something up
We’ve all got that habit or thing that we “couldn’t live without”, so why not put it to the test? Instead of spending the money you normally would on e.g. chocolate, you could donate it instead - and get people to sponsor you in your effort to give it up.

Raffle
Simply charge a fee for tickets and the winners get a prize. You could use unwanted presents as raffle prizes or ask your friends and local businesses if they’re willing to give you prizes.

Auction
If you have a collection of interesting items that you’re willing to let go of an auction could be perfect. However if you couldn’t possibly part with your most treasured possessions you could hold a promise auction, where you can auction off your time or skills.

Charity game
Organise a charity game of your sport of choice such as football, rugby or even a tennis tournament. Invite friends and family to take part and ask them for a donation per entry.

Quiz night
All you need is a suitable venue and then ask your guests to pay to play. Look online for example questions, or if you’re feeling creative you could write your own quiz. Make the questions as easy or difficult as you want!

Sponsored event
There are countless things that you could do and get sponsored. You could go down the extreme route and ask for sponsorship for things like skydiving. Or you could go down the slightly safer route - like a sponsored silence. The possibilities are endless!
