Fundraising within
your community

Fundraise for us

Help support our work with anxious, expectant, and bereaved parents by organising a community fundraising event.

Community fundraising is a great way of getting your local community involved in something fun that can raise money for charity. This could be with friends and family, colleagues or neighbours.

ARC fundraiser

I managed to double my target on fundraising, and I hope it means families who end up going through the same terrible decisions regarding a wanted child have the help and support they need from ARC.


Community fundraising gives you the chance to do your own fundraising at a time and date that suits you. There are so many ways you can fundraise within your community. We have put together some ideas below.

Starting simply:

  • Channel your inner domestic goddess and whip up some baked goodies for a cake sale.
  • Contact local shops and business for prizes and hold a raffle.
  • Clear out your clutter and raise money for ARC at the same time with a jumble sale.

At work:

  • Hold a dress-down day, with contributions to take part going to ARC.
  • Work with someone who’s always turning the air blue? Get an office swear box and donate the fines to ARC!
  • Plan an office sports day: not only can you raise money for ARC, but it is an excellent team building event too.

With friends and family:

  • Go on a sponsored walk with a group of friends.
  • Find your cleverest friends and hold a quiz night.
  • Turn your weekly catch up into a coffee morning event for ARC.
