Fundraising pages

to start you off

We are registered with Enthuse, GiveStar, JustGiving, but our preferred platform is GoFundMe. Click on the images below to head straight to the ‘create a fundraising page’ section of each site.

Each site will ask you to set up your own page by inputting personal details, as well as a brief description of why you’re taking on this activity for charity. A good paragraph includes:

  • What you’re doing (running, walking etc)
  • Why you’re doing it
  • The impact donations will have

For example: “On [date], I’ll be taking on [challenge] to raise money for Giddo’s Gift. I’ve chosen to support Giddo’s Gift because of the incredible work they do supporting teenagers and young adults living with cancer, as well as their families. Through services such as Giddo’s Gaff, grants, hospital support and special experiences, they help bring comfort, hope and joy during some of life’s most difficult times. Any donation, no matter how small, will help Giddo’s Gift continue supporting families when they need it most. Thank you for your support.”
