Food fundraising ideas
The kitchen is often the heart of a home – a place to cook, share food, and spend time together.
Could you use your food skills to help create that sense of home for others? Organise a bake sale, host a tasting evening, or set up your own food challenge.
The money you raise helps us fight for the right to a safe, stable home for everyone.

Fundraising tips
holding a dinner party or food sale? Ask your guests to donate what they would have spent in a restaurant or café
use your networks. Some people might prefer to help cook or bring baked goods to sell, others may prefer to donate
be safe. Research food hygiene and ask people about allergies in advance
make it a competition – ask people to bake the best cake to win
