You can schedule in a free advice call with one of Local Givings experienced fundraisers on how to effectively set up and run your very own appeal. Click here to book an advice call. Due to social distancing, donors are looking to give digitally. That's why they have included a few examples of different appeals and fundraisers (consider it inspiration!) to show you how successful your fundraising could be. Here they have appeals set up by a cricket club, to buy Christmas gifts, and even for an outdoor classroom. There are also loads of different great fundraising ideas you can engage your supporters with such as a virtual Christmas show, a shoebox fundraiser, or winter quiz night - the different options are endless. They have also collaborated with #XmasPartyHeroes who are encouraging corporations to donate funds from their unused Christmas Party budgets to much needed charities (as these events can no longer go ahead due to COVID-19) to ensure that this money doesn't go to waste. Localgiving is listed as a charity partner on the XmasPartyHeroes website meaning that your charity can easily be searched for and given donations by potential new donors, so please ensure that you have your Christmas campaigns set up!
