Fundraise at home

The new normal we all face has affected all of our lives in lots of different ways and here at Tiny Tickers your safety remains our top concern.

We’ve put together some fundraising ideas that can help provide a great and safe way to share your skills/passions… all whilst raising funds for babies with serious heart conditions.

Get Active

Running

Races are subject to last minute changes and it’s difficult to spend all that time training and then face cancellations or postponements.

However why not set your own challenge with friends. Simply set yourself a distance to run either in one day or over the course of a week/month and ask people to sponsor you. Although you will run by yourself, you can encourage your friends and colleagues to join you in running virtually too and set a group fundraising target to work towards.

Climbing

Transform your staircase into the world’s most iconic heights and climb your way to the top. From buildings to mountains, your stairs are the gateway to amazing achievements. Set a date for your climb and ask people to sponsor you as you would for any other challenge. Choose your distance, tell your friends, fundraise and challenge yourself!

Heres some heights to inspire you;

The Gherkin : 1,037 steps
Great Pyramid of Giza: 1,200 steps
Empire State Building: 1,576 steps
Eiffel Tower: 1,665 steps
The Shard: 3,672 steps
Ben Nevis: 22,197 steps
Snowdon: 24,785

Family Fundraising

Green fingers

Now that the weather is beginning to get a bit better (storms aside!) choose your favourite plant and encourage your friends and family to plant seeds at the same time as you. Ask them for a donation, and over time you can watch your seeds change from seedlings into grown plants. The gardener of the plant that gets its first fruit or flower wins half the sweepstake donation. Donate the other half to Tiny Tickers and enjoy your beautiful plants.

Or how about a classic sunflower competition?

Sunflowers are bright and cheery and there is no flower that can lift someone’s spirits quite like the sunflower! Give your little ones a pack of seeds, plant them and watch them grow. Once planted encourage your children to seek sponsorship for every cm of growth they achieve.

Make a donation

Whatever you decide to do, you can be assured that your donations will help us to reach many more babies with congenital heart defects. Many of us are finding that we are working from home or cancelling activities outside of our homes. This may mean that you find yourself saving some money that you would have spent on travel or other expenses. If you are able to, you may want to consider donating those savings to Tiny Tickers.
