Thank you for being there for people as they start to build a life beyond homelessness this Christmas. But your impact doesn’t have to stop once our Christmas services have ended.
But your impact doesn’t have to stop once our Christmas services have ended. By asking your family and friends to sponsor your volunteering, you can directly support our year-round services. You can help the people you meet this year access support beyond Christmas in areas such as housing, employment, and education, to end their homelessness for good.
Create online fundraising page via Just Giving and select ‘I’m doing my own activity’’. We recommend personalising your page and including a short intro about why you’ve chosen to support Crisis.
Share your fundraising link on social media and post updates on how you’re getting on throughout your time volunteering.
Send a message with your fundraising link to loved ones; colleagues; and ask your employer if they will match fund your donations. We have example text for you to use below.
Use some of our wording below to help ask for donations this Christmas. Make it personal to you by adding your motivations for choosing Crisis at Christmas:
"As a volunteer for Crisis this Christmas, I’ll be there for people as they build their lives beyond homelessness.
I want to make sure that the people I help continue to get the support they need after Christmas. Could you sponsor me and help make this happen? Your support will help fund Crisis’ year-round services, ending people’s homelessness for good. <Link to my fundraising page >"
