Fundraising at Work

Gather your colleagues to raise funds for Action Against Hunger

Fundraising at work allows you to bring together the collective power of your colleagues to help save children from hunger. People love to support worthy causes, so why not take on a lifesaving challenge? Your team could make a lasting, positive impact on the world.

You can host potlucks, baking challenges, quizzes, fitness challenges or workouts, sweepstakes, karaoke, fancy dress, or any other creative ideas you can think of! Many fundraising activities can be live-streamed so you can involve colleagues across the country or world.

Be sure to talk with your HR department about your campaign for Action Against Hunger as they may be able to match your gifts. A matching sponsor will double your impact and encourage more people to get involved.

WHY HUNGER?

Around 783 million people go to bed hungry every night, and nearly half of all child deaths worldwide are linked to malnutrition.

Many young children never get a chance to live beyond the age of five — even though we can predict, prevent, and treat malnutrition. 

We are the world’s hunger specialist. We have the knowledge and tools to save the lives of malnourished children. We helped more than 28 million people in 2022 with our lifesaving programs, but we need more funds to expand our reach and create a future where no child dies of hunger.

CORPORATE FUNDRAISING IDEAS

Here are some more ideas for fundraising at work. You don’t need to choose just one event. Some fundraisers host a series of events to maximize their funds raised.

1. Host a sponsored swim, walk or run.
2. Have a cake sale or potluck.
3. Run a talent show or karaoke competition.
4. Have a book sale. Ask colleagues to bring in unused books.
5. Host an ice cream fundraiser.
6. Add a spare change jar to your reception. Be bold and take it round to desks.
7. Create charity wristbands or other craft creations.
8. Have a themed dress-up day.
9. Host a video game tournament.
10. Run a quiz.
