Fundraise for YWCA
Raise money to support young women by taking part in one of our events or organising a fundraising event of your own.
Events for 2009
Get your running shoes on and join us for one of our exciting fundraising events this year.
Hold your own fundraising event
You could organise a fundraising event through your company, school, university, place of worship or in your local community. Any donations raised no matter how big or small will have a huge impact on the lives of the young women we work with.
If you would like more information about fundraising for YWCA or want to receive sponsorship forms, posters, flyers or t-shirts to help with your event email us or call 01865 304205.
