Fundraise
Your passion means we can support the most vulnerable
Getting Started
Whether you’re planning to host a bake sale, run a marathon or organise an event – if you need any materials, support or advice please get in touch via fundraise@cityhearts.co.uk
A great way to publicise your fundraising efforts is to create an online giving page. Simply visit the City Hearts JustGiving page and follow the “Fundraise for us” link to get started.
By creating an online fundraising page you might find that it is easier to spread the word and receive more donations, especially by using social media.
Helpful Tips
Make It Personal
- Make sure you personalise your fundraising page as much as possible. Add a photo. People are more likely to donate if they know a bit about you, City Hearts, and the reasons behind your fundraising efforts.
- Set a fundraising target to help encourage support – the closer you get to your goal it may well inspire people to give a little extra!
- Write a blog could help, especially if you’re training for an event. Keeping supporters updated gives them an insight into how much time and effort you’re investing into fundraising.
What Does It Go Towards?
Let your supporters know about the vital work at City Hearts that you are raising money for. Here’s some information that you could include on your page: Human trafficking is a £115 billion global business. On any given day, there are an estimated 136,000 victims of Modern Slavery in the UK alone. City Hearts relentlessly pursues the freedom and restoration of lives torn apart by Modern Slavery and life controlling issues. They create projects that bring real change to some of the most vulnerable and exploited people in society all over the world. They are dedicated to each person’s recovery and to restoring their lives and futures. City Hearts supports thousands of men, women & children every year, through its safe houses and support initiatives, and with your help they can do so much more.
