Murmuration’s first fundraiser is launching in november!
We are launching our very own Events Fundraising programme. And we are hoping to tap into our supporter’s raw talent and creative spark to help us fundraise for our vital continuing work for parent carers.
The plan
Whether it be a fundraising event such as a community bake sale, a work or school dress-down day, a sponsored challenge such as a skydive or a marathon run, or simply a ‘Donate your Birthday’ fundraiser, all ideas are warmly encouraged! We have created an A-Z of fundraising ideas to get you thinking, which you can see below.
