Volunteer fundraisers are essential in order for WVS to carry out its work around the world. If you are interested in getting involved then please contact the office and we will be happy to provide you with fundraising ideas and advice. Remember, even the smallest donation helps us immensely. Every penny counts.
If you are holding a fundraising event on behalf of WVS, please let us know so that we can advertise it on the site and supply you with any fundraising materials you require such as leaflets, posters and collection pots.
Sponsored Events:
Getting sponsored to particpate in an event is a simple and effective way of raising funds for WVS. We can supply you with sponsorship forms or alternatively you can create your own fundraising page on Just Giving so that your friends and family can make instant donations online.
Skydive:
How about flinging yourself out of a plane on behalf of WVS? We are registered with Skydive Zone , a company which specialises in organising sponsored tandem skydives, accelerated freefall jumps and static line parachute jumps. Simply contact the skydive zone team with your details and name WVS as your chosen charity to support!
Challenge Events:
Take part in a challenge of a lifetime and raise funds for WVS! Perhaps you’ve always wanted to see Machu Picchu or the Great Wall of China. Or have you always wanted to cycle from Land’s End to John O’Groats but never turned that ambition into a reality? With Discover Adventure Open Challenges you can do just that and raise money for WVS at the same time! Please visit their website for a list of adventures that are available to take part in!
If you are interested in undertaking a challenge event to raise money for WVS, Global Adventure Challenges Ltd also have many exciting challenges to choose from. So, if you fancy trekking to Everest base camp, motorcycling across India or white water rafting on the Zambezi take a look at their website and sign up, remembering to name WVS as your chosen charity.
