Fundraise at Easter

You don't have to be part of a big group to fundraise. There's lots of easy ways to raise funds in support of The Salvation Army at home or online that are accessible to all. Whether you're giving something up or hosting a small Easter Egg hunt in your home, your fundraising supports people in need to help them make a fresh start through the services of The Salvation Army, just like Matthew.

There's lots of ways to get involved:

• Host an Easter Egg hunt in your garden
• Share your JustGiving page on social media
• Give something up across Easter - ask for donations instead of chocolate
• Plan your own run, walk, or cycle to raise funds

Let one of the most important times of year resonate in your church and impact your community. Forgiveness, hope and renewal are at the heart of Easter, and by supporting the work of The Salvation Army in your church, you allow us to provide frontline community services. Your funds allow us to provide safe accommodation, emergency food, clothes, community services reducing isolation, as well as emotional, spiritual, and practical support that helps people move forward with hope.

There's lots of ways your church can get involved:

• Hold an Easter or Good Friday collection
• Host an Easter coffee morning or community meal
• Include a testimony led appeal during a service
• Form a prayer and reflection club/group focused on new beginnings

This Easter, your fundraising can make the first step possible.
