There are many different exciting ways you can fundraise for breast cancer charities. No matter what breast cancer charity you choose, whether it’s for medical research to develop new treatments or to directly help those suffering, you will be helping to draw attention to an important cause that affects millions of women across the world, with hundreds of thousands of women being diagnosed each year in the US alone.

So how can you raise as much money as possible for your chosen breast cancer charity? Here are some ideas that can help.

Pink Car Wash Fundraising Idea

For this one, you will need to round up the men in your life and get them to help. Have them all wear pink, the well known color for breast cancer charities around the world, and hold a car wash. This can be a fun way for the guys to get involved and can attract some serious attention to your fundraising efforts. Make sure all the guys have their own scratch off fundraising envelopes so they can maximize donations.

Sponsored Walks Fundraising Idea

A sponsored walk can be a great way of gathering up your whole family, including your dog, and heading out on the trail to raise some money. Because it’s a walk and not a run, it can be easier for people to participate but you can make it long enough that people will be encouraged to donate. Maybe you could have a pink theme too, such as having everyone wear one pink item, no matter how small. Use the scratch off fundraising envelopes to collect donations more easily.

Hair Stylist Party Fundraising Idea

For this one, you would need to get some of your local hairstylists on board. But this can be a great idea for fundraising. Because with some cancer treatments, women can often lose their hair, this can be one way of making these women and others feel great. Hair stylists can style wigs for those going through treatment or style hair for those who are not. You could even host a haircutting drive for anyone with long hair who would be willing to donate their hair for wigs.

Pink Party Fundraising Idea

Go nuts with the pink theme and host a pink party. You could host it in your home or in your backyard and invite all your friends and their friends. Make it a tea party or even a barbeque with pink decorations to highlight your cause. The scratch off fundraising envelopes can work well for gathering donations at a party. You can have your guests donate on arrival or hand out the fundraising envelopes during the event.

Fundraising Yoga Class

Yoga is known to be a good way to relax and stretch without using too much energy. This means it can be ideal for breast cancer sufferers, those who are in recovery and everyone else. Make sure you can get a certified yoga instructor to teach the class but you could hold the class outside in the park if it’s nice, which could encourage others to join in and donate.
