Small Charity Week- Major Announcement!
The Olympics is getting all the attention right now but there is another major event that will take the UK by storm in 2012.
Small Charity Week is set to return with more events, more ways to get involved and more opportunities to get the public behind your work. The UKs biggest celebration of small charities ever is about to get even bigger and we are already busily preparing. There are plenty of ways to get involved wherever you are and you can start today!
Right now there are three things we want you to do:
PUT THE DATES IN YOUR DIARY AND GET THINKING
Small Charity Week 2012 runs from Monday the 11th of June through to Friday the 15th. The week will take the same form as it did in 2011 – Monday is I Love Small Charities Day, Tuesday is the Big Advice Day, Wednesday is Policy Day, Thursday is Fundraising Day and Friday is Celebration Day.
You can get involved in a myriad different ways from attending FSI events, running your own event or campaign, submitting an item for the online auction…
ORGANISE YOUR AUCTION ITEM
In the lead up to this year’s Small Charity Week we would like to run a mass eBay auction with all of you taking part to raise money for your amazing causes! Do you or one of your supporters have an amazing auction item… something really unique? Does your charity have a celebrity patron who could auction off lunch with a fan to help your cause? Or perhaps you have an autographed collectable that could be fundraising gold… spread the word and see if your staff or supporters can help your charity.
TELL US WHAT PRODUCT YOU PREFER
Small Charity Week kicks off with I Love Small Charities Day – could there be a better start to the week? – and we want to produce merchandise that small charities can sell to raise funds whilst contributing to public awareness of Small Charity Week. Below are some options – we’d love to know what you think will work best for small charities so please get in touch and let us know by following the link completing this very short survey!
