Fundraising
|
We are working day by day to make safe emergency dentistry available to all Tanzanians. We are committed to empowering the disabled and empowering the community at Bukumbi. How much we can do and how fast we get there depends on you. Last year our supporters raised more than 45% of our income through fundraising events ranging from collecting 20p's in Smartie tubes to hosting a coffee morning or shopping online. They had a lot of fun in the process, and through their efforts brought a smile to the faces of hundreds of thousands of people in Tanzania. Below are some ideas on how you can get started, or give Jennie a call on 079645 10978 to discuss your own ideas or talk about joining our Fundraisers network. It all helps us restore more smiles and change lives together! |
Change your search engine
Everyclick is a search engine with a difference. It works just like any other major search engine but the difference with Everyclick is that you can raise money for your favourite charity - Bridge2Aid! So, next time you search for something on the internet, go to http://www.everyclick.com/uk/bridge2aid/805070/766825

Fill a Food Tube and provide Bukumbi Food for 6 Months!
|
|
Fill a Tesco fizzy vitamin tube or a Steradent tube with 20p pieces by getting unsuspecting friends, work colleagues or grandparents to empty their pockets and handover any 20ps!. You can either get the tubes from us, or buy your own and we'll send you the stickers. A full tube contains £15, enough money to provide a person at Bukumbi with basic food for 6 months. We have a video, posters and postcards to help you raise money. For more details please contact Rob in the office. |
Collection Boxes
This simple idea allows funds to be collected wherever you go; email Rob to get hold of yours!
Buy or sell Tanzanian Cards

Support Services
|
|
Fundraising doesn't have to involve trudging around with sponsorship forms and trying to get money out of people after an event! We use online giving specialist justgiving.com to provide online fundraising support. |
You can set up your own fundraising page for any event you are taking part in for us, then email your friends, family and colleagues about it, and then collect pledges and donations directly through the site. Gift Aid can be collected automatically. The whole process saves us and you a huge amount of administration and it is by far the best way to raise money for us.
