Fundraising

There are many different ways to support Pelican.

You could organise or participate in a fun event to raise funds for Pelican’s work – for some inspiration take a look at the story of Helen's half marathon

In fact the opportunities for fundraising are endless: golf days, office dressing up/down days, coffee mornings, children’s discos, karaoke evenings, barn dances, Christmas fairs, dinner dances, marathons, sponsored walks, dog walks, cricket matches, concert evenings, art exhibitions, fashion shows, bridge evenings, clay pigeon shoots, open gardens, sky-diving - or even taking part in, or organising, an overseas challenge. Raise money for Pelican while having the experience of a lifetime!

You could donate in kind – we are always on the look-out for auction and raffle prizes to raise funds at the small number of events Pelican holds each year. This could be in the form of luxury goods, hampers, wine, holidays, high-quality toiletries, celebrity memorabilia, tickets to sporting events or concerts … whatever may make an appealing auction prize. We are very grateful to our friends who provide so much help and support in kind.

We would love to hear from you with your ideas. Tell us what you’re up to – we can profile your event on Pelican’s website and in our supporter e-bulletin and/or newsletter. If you need any leaflets, sponsorship forms or posters about Pelican, or other support to help you to make your idea a reality, just let us know.
