Fundraise and donate

There are so many ways to support us through gaming. See our our top five gaming fundraisers below or just use the button to donate. You can also sign up an onling giving page through Tiltify or JustGiving.

Tournaments

 

You could host your very own gaming tournament. Whether your friends or colleagues are into Call of Duty, FIFA, Mario Kart or something else – it’s super easy to set up a tournament online. Charge a donation to enter (suggested £10) and find a donated prize.

Streaming

 

If you are already a streamer, we’d love you to host a fundraising stream as part of our gaming activation- get your audience to watch you play and invite them to make donations or to decide what you do in the game, or vote for you to carry out forfeits!

Game Sale

 

Got some old games that you no longer play? Why not set up a game sale, ask other people to contribute their games and donate the money.

Game Challenge Day

 

Challenge your colleagues or friends to a face-to-face gaming challenge. You could book a meeting room, or local community building for the day and set it up with things like table tennis, games consoles and board games. Find some prizes for competition winners and ask people for a small donation to take part in the day

Board Game Night

 

Go back to basics with an old fashioned board game night. Play some childhood favourites like Monopoly or Cluedo,or try some more modern options like Ticket to Ride and Carcassone. Add in some themed snacks, music, maybe even costumes and ask people for a small donation in exchange for their invite.
