Christmas Corporate Fundraising Ideas
Rainbow Trust Children's Charity
Supporting seriously ill children and their families.
With?Christmas?just around the corner,?for many of?us,?there’s?no better excuse to raise money for?charity; it’s?the ultimate?time to give.?Whether you’re a fan of the true office classic, the Christmas jumper day, or you’d prefer to keep your fundraising a little less retro and a bit?more?ritzy, we’ve put together our?top office fundraising ideas to ensure you?have a jolly holly holiday season.?
Send some Season’s Greetings.?
The Christmas card may well have fallen?out of?favour?in recent years, but we think the pandemic has changed all of that.?The desire to connect has never been greater, but so has the need to be climate friendly.?Rainbow Trust’s e-cards allow you to ditch the?paper, and?send branded electronic Christmas cards direct to your client’s inboxes.?Find out more?here.??
A?Great?Rainbow?Festive?Bake.
Put some sparkle on your sprinkles and?throw an office #GreatRainbowBake.?Whether you’re a star baker, complete beginner or simply want to have some fun with?your colleagues, nothing gets you into the festive spirit more than a?bit of friendly competition where you can decide who makes the merriest mince pie, or the most luxurious yule log. So,?get silly, get messy, get baking! No need to worry about flour in hair, dough on faces or?colouring?on fingertips, simply create your rainbow bake,?share your pictures with us using #GreatRainbowBake?and pay in funds raised?here.?
Belt out your?favourite?carols at Rainbow Trust’s London Carol Concert (2 December).
If you fancy a team outing, there is nothing more magical than a?candlelit?carol concert to ring in the festive season.?Rainbow Trust can provide that warm fuzzy feeling?at our very own London Carol Concert?hosted by?Mary Nightingale,?where you'll enjoy a wonderful array of carols from Farleigh School choir and readings from celebrity guests including Rob Delaney, Alex Kingston and Giles?Andreae. More details on how to book can be found?here.?
Step into Christmas (see what we did there?).
The festive season can be?pretty sedentary, so if you want to kick start the month with a bit of a?pre-Turkey trotting, how about doing an office Steps Challenge??From the beginning of December, until the office closes, challenge yourselves to do 10,000 steps a day, all whilst fundraising for your?favourite?cause.?
Bring back the colour with a festive themed jumper day.
It’s a staple in offices in the run up to Christmas, and for good?reason!?It’s super easy and super silly.?Don your most fabulous?colourful?Christmas jumpers and raise money to bring back?the colour to families who may struggle to celebrate this season. Prizes for colleagues who adorn their own jumpers with a bit of handmade magic.?
Merry?Quizmas!?
It’s been a weird year, hasn’t it??If you’re still remote working, or?even?hybrid working, it may be that you can’t have a classic Christmas?party yet again this year.?Time to roll out your best festive quiz?team?names for an office Christmas Quiz!?Hosted by Quiz Kringle (aka your boss), you can log on and test your?knowledge from the comfort of your sofa.?Charge a little entry fee for your chosen?charity, and?award a?prize for the best quiz name.?We wish it could be?Quizmas?everyday!?
Donate your last hour’s pay.?
If?all of?that sounds like too much hard work, when all you want to do is snuggle in with a hot chocolate?once you’ve put your holiday Out of Office On, then worry not, we’ve got your back.??A generous yet easy option is to donate your last hour of pay before Christmas to charity?– probably one of the most important gifts you’ll give all Christmas.?
Whatever you decide to do, have fun with the knowledge that any fundraising you do will mean a great deal to so many people,?and if we can help make your festive fundraising dreams a reality just?get in touch.???
