FUNDRAISE

Raising funds for a cause you believe in is a great way to involve your friends, family and community in an organisation you love

At FareShare Sussex & Surrey, we believe in the power of community. By fundraising together, you not only raise vital funds to keep our vans on the road and food flowing to local charities, but you also spread awareness of the challenges of hunger and food waste.

If you are organising a fundraiser for us, we would love to hear from you and support you. Every coffee morning, sponsored challenge, school bake sale, or workplace fundraiser helps us rescue surplus food and turn it into nutritious meals for people who need them most.

Fun Ways to Support Us

There are so many ways you and your community can fundraise. Whatever you are passionate about, you can transform into a way to raise funds for FareShare Sussex & Surrey.
