Fundraising Events

There are countless events you can participate in to help raise money for FNF.

Whether your local fun run, a 10km race, a half marathon or even the full 26.2 miler – you can raise money to create a better future for families. Or why not swim, take part in the UK National Air Guitar Championships, or hold a themed event?

To get some ideas click here for a calendar of events in which you can participate. Dates may be subject to change, but please refer to the event’s website for up-to-date information.

If you have purchased a place in any running event we’d love it if you used this place to run for FNF. Please contact nadja.singh@fnf.org.uk and we will support you with your fundraising efforts, and provide you with a T-shirt and publicity material where appropriate.

Once you’ve decided on your event we recommend that you set up a JustGiving fundraising internet page. It takes less than a minute before you are able to email all your friends and family with a link to the page, and all the administration (including collecting Gift Aid) is taken care of for both you and FNF.

If you’re a fan of Facebook and Twitter you can also use these to increase your support. Find out more here.

Or if you like, you can download a good old fashioned sponsorship form here.

Whatever you decide to do – stay safe, and have fun! Oh! It is very important to read the Rules and Regulations first.

Raise Money Online 

  

There are several ways you can make money for FNF whilst you use the internet - at no cost to you.

 
  • The first is by using Everyclick, a search engine which donates half its revenue to charity.
 
 
  • Add it to your Favourites and set it as your Homepage and Searchbar with the tools in the top right hand corner. If every member takes part, then FNF will reap some serious rewards.
 


 

 

 

  • The second is as part of the Amazon affiliates program. Every time you buy something from Amazon going via the link below, we receive 5%.
    •   It's a really simple way to support FNF, so please make sure you use the below link when buying books, CDs, DVDs, birthday presents and so on... Please ask your family, friends and colleagues to do the same.

    Mobile Phone & Printer Cartridge Recycling Scheme

     

    • Last year the FNF Mobile Recycling Scheme raised over £1000 – and it’s time for the good work to continue. We’ve got Recycle4Charity on board this year, who are giving us 50% of the recycling value for every phone they receive (at least £2.50 - but up to £30 for newer models).  
    • You will have found a stamped address bag inside your McKenzie magazine this month (if you didn't get one, or need another, just e-mail Julius and we'll get one out to you). All you need to do is pop your old mobile phones in there (no matter how old or broken) and then in the post. We’ll also get £1 for every used inkjet cartridge (as long as they haven’t already been recycled) – so stick them in there as well. You’ll also be doing the planet a favour.

    You can arrange for Recycle4Charity to send recycling boxes and bags direct to your office or house. Whether you need a whole box, or just a few bags, Recycle4Charity will send you whatever you need.

    Everything will be marked up with their address and our reference number - all you need to do is fill it up and send it off, and the money comes straight to Families Need Fathers.

    Just click the banner below to get recycling bags and boxes sent to you. If you need any help, just e-mail Julius.

     

     
     

     If you could help support any of these initiatives (by including a link on your website, or in your company's e-mail signatures, for example) then please e-mail Julius and find out more.
