Fundraise for GIFT

GIFT’s very first workshops in 2001 were paid for by fundraising in our local communities, and supporters’ fundraising has powered the work ever since. Here are some ideas to get you started.

Ideas that have worked

  • Coffee mornings and afternoon teas. Simple to organise and always popular.
  • Concerts. Blues musician Scott Ainslie has played several concerts for GIFT.
  • Food events. Supper evenings, barbecues and honey cookery masterclasses, often with local beekeepers and chefs.
  • Quiz nights and film evenings.
  • A talk from Janet. Invite Janet to talk to your group about GIFT's work in Kenya.

Tell us what you are planning and we can help with information, photos and stories from the projects. Please make sure your event follows our privacy and safeguarding approach: we never publish children’s names.
