fundraising

Fundraising is at the core of what we do at Waggy Tails Rescue. We receive no government funding or help from anyone – except YOU, the general public. We cannot operate without YOUR help to raise much-needed money to pay our vets bills, gas, electricity, rent, running the ambulance etc. Our current operating costs are approximately £8000 A MONTH!

FUNdraising is FUN, and can take many forms whether it be running a sponsored race, holding office events or even taking part in a Husky drive across the Arctic, it all helps! See our list of suggestions and phone us for advice and support!

	Ask if you can have collection box. We will supply a poster/pictures to accompany it. If you all have to ‘look smart’, suggest a dress-down day, with all participants donating. You could wear silly ties, hats or ear-rings! Invite us along to say ‘Thank You’! Suggest a ‘take a pet to work’ day. It could be real, or a toy version. Suggest to your colleagues you all get together and organise a fundraising supper party. Everyone brings a dish, and all give a donation. Ask if you can display a poster in the staff canteen. And keep talking about Waggy Tails at every given opportunity. Sign up to payroll giving, and encourage your colleagues to do the same. Hold a small raffle and ask your boss to donate a prize.

Get your mums to bake cakes and sell them at school, giving the proceeds to Waggy Tails. Get your class to bring in photos of their pets and, for a donation, display them on a notice board.

Have a tombola, or bring and buy. Spring clean and have a car boot or garage sale. If you go to a club or pub, ask the landlord to organise a quiz and donate the entry fees to Waggy Tails. Do something that will enable you to raise sponsorship money eg. A silence, a swim, a walk, a haircut, a shave, a diet, etc. Ask every shop you go into if they will display a poster or have a collecting tin. If you go to the gym, get sponsorship for ‘miles’ on the treadmill or exercise bike, or lengths in the pool. If you are a keen gardener, hold a plant ‘swop’ or sale.
