Fundraise for us

We know that not everyone can be on site with a toolbelt but anyone can make a difference. Whether you’re baking, running, cycling or getting creative, choosing to fundraise for us is a powerful way to support UK construction workers and their families when they need it most.

We’re here to help you bring your idea to life, with all the tools and support you need. However you choose to raise money, your fundraiser helps us provide practical, emotional and financial support to those navigating life-changing circumstances. After all, behind every construction worker is a family and every family deserves a helping hand.

What Makes A Great Fundraiser?

There’s no right or wrong way to fundraise, it’s all about finding something you enjoy and encouraging others to get involved. From solo challenges to team events, every penny raised goes directly towards helping construction workers and their loved ones.

Here are a few popular ideas to get you started:

  • Host a quiz night or coffee morning
  • Take on a physical challenge like a hike, swim or sponsored silence
  • Hold a raffle or auction in your local community
  • Celebrate a special occasion like a birthday or anniversary by asking for donations in lieu of gifts
  • Get creative! Talent shows, bake sales, or fancy dress days are all brilliant ways to fundraise

Once you’ve chosen your activity, let us know, we can offer advice and share your plans with our community to help make your event a success. Be sure to check out our Fundraising Ideas for more inspiration.

Why Your Fundraiser Matters

You help us transform lives. You could help fund a ramp that gives someone access to their home, or provide emergency financial support for a family in crisis. It could even go towards mental health services for a construction worker struggling in silence

Every event, every donation and every bit of awareness raised makes a real difference. When you choose to fundraise for us, you’re standing shoulder to shoulder with the people who build our world and the families who stand behind them.
