Community Fundraising

Community Fundraising is about teaming up with your local community to support UKHarvest. Your community could be a social group or club, school or college mates, colleagues, a religious group or sports club.  Your community can support your fundraising goals by joining in a group activity, donating to support you or sharing your fundraising pages.

There are so many ways you and your community can fundraise.

Take a look at the suggestions below and run your own fundraiser.

Email us at info@ukharvest.org.uk.

Turn your cupboard staples, yellow-sticker finds, or tasty leftovers into a fantastic feast for friends and family. By hosting a "Surplus Supper," you can bring people together for a delicious meal and raise vital funds for UKHarvest, who rescue surplus food and get it to those who need it most. It's a fun, sustainable way to make a real difference. Get cooking and get giving! 

And don't panic, this doesn't just have to be for supper. How about a leftover lunch!? 

Foody Fundraisers:

There are so many opportunities to raise money while creating minimal impact on your day.

Food is such a brilliant way to engage donations, bring people together and have fun while raising much needed funds for UKHarvest.

Ideas could include:

A food challenge
A themed night
Something more seasonal like Guess the Weight of a Pumpkin or Pancake Flipping Content

Great for schools, work places, clubs and teams. Families can get involved, or simply a group of friends.
