Fundraising

Change Lives. Support Trades.

At Band of Builders (BoB), every fundraiser, every event and every donation helps us deliver real change to construction workers and their families facing life-altering circumstances. From practical projects like installing accessible bathrooms to offering vital wellbeing support, fundraising allows us to keep saying “yes” when help is needed most.

Whether you’re taking on a challenge, setting up a birthday fundraiser, or simply spreading the word, your efforts go a long way, not just for the construction worker in need, but for their family, too. When someone is struggling, the whole household feels it. That’s why our support extends to loved ones, not just the construction worker.

See how you can get involved below and become part of something that truly changes lives.

Why Fundraise For Band of Builders?

We’re more than a charity, we’re a movement built on action. Fundraising helps us deliver hands-on projects to people who’ve hit hard times due to injury, illness or disability. From the smallest fixes to full home renovations, your support funds life-changing results.

We’re not just helping individuals, we support the wider family, too. When we build, we build futures together.

Stuck For Ideas?

Fundraising doesn’t have to mean marathons or bake sales (although we love both). Here are a few other ways to get started:

  • Host a quiz night or BBQ
  • Do a sponsored silence or head shave
  • Challenge your colleagues to a fancy-dress day
  • Run a workplace raffle or auction

Big or small, your fundraising idea can make a big difference. Need help getting started? Check out our Fundraising Ideas.
