Virtual fundraising ideas
Virtual fundraising is a great way to raise money for the BPA from the comfort of your own home. Here are just a few ideas to get you started:
Gaming stream-athons
Turn your video-gaming into a fun way to raise money. You could set challenges, goals or incentives to encourage more donations. Simply head to JustGiving to find out everything you need to know about fundraising while you game.
- Virtual birthday gifts
Instead of asking for gifts, why not ask friends and family to donate to your online fundraising page instead? See our page on fundraising for special occasions to find out more.
- Virtual auction
Showcase items or experiences that people can bid on online. Add a livestream element by hosting a virtual countdown.
- Virtual book club/movie night
Host a virtual book club or movie night with your friends online, and include activities and games to see how well they know the book/movie!
- Virtual pub quiz
Invite your friends to brush up on their general knowledge and join you for a virtual showdown! It could be focused on your specialist subject or cover a wide range of topics such as music, film, politics, current affairs, and pop culture. If you don’t have time to make your own quiz, you can download our ready-made question and answer sheets!
- Virtual murder mystery
Get into character and host a murder mystery game via Zoom. These days there are many virtual providers of these games, such as Murder Mystery Games.
