Fundraise

We aim to raise over £600,000 a year to enable us to continue meeting the demand for our programmes.

Fundraise For Us

Fundraising for YLF is a fun and gratifying way of supporting our work. Look at ways to get involved below and join us in raising money and changing lives!

Personal Challenge

There is no one-size-fits-all, so raise money by doing the things you love or set yourself a challenge!

In the Community

Host a golf day, sponsored walk, or quiz night by bringing your community or club members together for a local cause.

In School

Provide the opportunity for your pupils to learn about charitable giving through fun activities like talent shows and non-uniform days!

At Work

Create a workplace fundraiser with your colleagues by setting up events such sponsored team games, a bake sale or a raffle.

Special Occasions

Fundraise in memory of a loved one, or mark a special day by asking for monetary donations instead of gifts.

Fundraising Regulator

We are registered with The Fundraising Regulator and agree to abide by charity and fundraising laws and comply with fundraising standards.

This means we are open, honest and use your fundraised money exactly how we say we will. We even give you the choice of selecting a particular project you would like your money put towards if you want to.

Gift Aid

Gift aiding your donation means it will be worth 25% more to us at no additional cost to you. Gift Aid is a scheme operated by HM Revenue and Customs allowing charities to claim the basic rate tax on a donation made by a UK taxpayer.

Gift Aid is automatically claimed through our online donation form and through any individual YLF fundraising pages.
