Charity running is one of the most gratifying experiences, knowing that by getting off the couch you are taking your first step to make beneficial changes for those who are less fortunate. Coupling your training with your fundraising will not only make you feel much better in yourself, it will also make you feel much better about yourself. Did you also know that running promotes clarity of the mind? What are you waiting for – don those new running shoes!
Perhaps you are looking to get your charity running careers off the ground with a 5K run for charity or a Fun Run for charity.
Maybe its a slightly more difficult event you are after, if so try a 10K run for charity.
If you are feeling like a real challenge its time to take on a half marathon run for charity
OK, so you are ready for the big one! Time to get a little Greek and conquer a marathon for charity.
Funding is available to many organisations in the UK through lottery funding. The Big Lottery Fund is one such group who support hundreds of UK community and voluntary causes. Visit their website to find out more about eligibility.
These could take the form of a race, a guess the baby photo contest, a quiz night, a talent contest, a raffle or any of a hundred other fun ideas.
It may not be an original idea, but it sure is popular. Organise a cake morning and bring along delicious treats to sell to friends and family.
A great opportunity for the whole group to have a good clear out, a car boot sale can help raise funds. If you have grounds, then why not use them to host sales for the local community, with the club keeping the stall fees.
Set up a swear jar in the office and any time somebody curses, they need to make a donation.
Buy some pizza bases and lots of toppings, then hold a pizza party where everyone can make and eat their own pizza. You might want to make this a weekend activity so that colleagues can bring their children along. Make sure to hold it somewhere that has enough preparation and cooking space.
