Sponsored Events & Fundraising

Why not stretch yourself by taking on a personal challenge and raising money for African Children’s Fund at the same time? You might like to embark on an organised event or set-up a challenge of your own. Whatever your preference, we would love to hear from you.

It has been a fun journey and we had a great weekend. And so good to know we helped to make the world a little bit better at the same time.

Set your own challenge

Perhaps you would prefer to co-ordinate your own challenge - maybe organising a walk in your local area or holding a sponsored silence?

If you are interested in fundraising for African Children's Fund with your own event, we would love to hear from you! The list of ideas is inexhaustible from cake sales to quizzes and fitness classes to fashion shows. Get your local school, church, club or pub involved and raise money for the projects we support in Africa.

We provide full support to all our fundraisers, with help available when setting up your dedicated fundraising page and charity t-shirts available to celebrate your fundraising milestones. Contact us today so we can help you fulfil your goals.
