Fundraise
All of OTR’s services are free for young people. To help us to continue providing our services, donations and fundraising events supporting OTR are very much appreciated and encouraged!
If you would like to fundraise for OTR, we’d love to hear from you. Here are a few things you can do for us:
Month of Movement! Walk, run or jog to raise money for young people’s mental health. Set up your JustGiving page, set your own goal for one month and be amazed at what you can do.
You can choose a personal challenge to raise funds for us as an individual supporter. Run a marathon, learn a new skill, shave your hair. Whatever floats your boat!
You can team up with friends or use an existing group to fundraise for us. For instance, we’ve had support from a group of friends who decided to cycle to Paris. We also had a group of friends hosting a gameathon for us. It can be a lot of fun to ‘do good’ together. Talk to your friends about OTR and set up a group challenge!
How to fundraise with us
If you want to fundraise or donate to us, please find our JustGiving page here.
You can run for OTR – apply for a free charity place in the upcoming Bath and Bristol runs (September and October 2022)!
You can find us on JustGiving and set up your fundraising campaign there – all the money you raise will be sent directly to us, so you don’t have to worry about managing it.
You can also fundraise for us on Facebook. All you need to do is set up a fundraising page or simply choose us each time you celebrate your birthday or mention fundraising for us (in Facebook updates and Instagram stories with the sticker “donate”).
OTR is a listed charity on Amazon Smile – if you select us as your charity and shop via smile.amazon.co.uk then we’ll receive money each time you shop!
You can support your fundraising efforts with text giving. Just ask your supporters to text “OTRBRISTOL 5” to 70085 to donate £5 to us (they can choose donations between £1 and £20 by changing the ‘5’ accordingly).
