Have you ever wanted to be a part of Karuna’s fundraising team?
Do you want to become involved in Karuna’s work, but don’t have the time to volunteer?
Do you find it hard to give donations through our normal channels, but want to help us make a difference?
I may have an answer for you that can turn your everyday living into giving!
Karuna has recently signed up to Everyday Hero, an innovative website that allows people to raise money for their favourite charity or non-profit through a number of fun and exciting ideas.
You can become an Everyday Hero, set up your own fundraising page and run your own events to raise money for Karuna. This could be as small as a fun run at your local school or a Tux ‘n’ Tails, Diamonds ‘n’ Tiaras ball, complete with silent auctions and raffles.
Once you have set up the page, decided on an event and set a fundraising target, you can email all your friends and encourage them to sponsor you, buy tickets to attend the event or donate directly to Karuna.
If you’re not feeling energetic, you can support a friend, family member or colleague who is running a fundraising event for Karuna. That way you can donate without even breaking a sweat!
If shopping is more your thing, you can register as an Everyday Hero and shop for gifts, services and lots of other fun stuff from the shopping partners listed on the site. These partners have agreed to give a percentage of their profits to the Everyday Hero charities. The idea of registering first is so you can choose Karuna as your charity and ensure a percentage of the money you spend goes directly to Karuna.
So hop on the site and have a look. Once you’re hooked, let all your friends and family know about it. You can even raise money for Karuna by sending them a Hero e-card asking them to join!
It’s a fun, easy way to help us continue to care for the people of Brisbane.
