Fundraising
YCSA relies on donations to enable us to provide the opportunities for young people and their families. We are looking to generate more funds to continue our charitable work with young people from Black and Minority Ethnic backgrounds, and a fantastic way we can do this is through fundraising.
If you have experience or an interest in organising activities like book sales, online sales and car boot sales, raffles and street collections please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
Fundraising volunteering is a very fulfilling venture which can fit around a busy schedule so let us know when you have availability and we can hopefully come together.
We are also often looking for new ideas and events that can lead us to more fundraising opportunities so if you think you have something to offer we would love to hear from you.
