FUNDRAISING IDEAS

FOOTBALL CARDS, I buy cards from Ebay @£2.00 for 25, sell to family and friends or ask if can be sent round a CWU branch meeting etc.

TABLE TOP/CAR BOOT EVENTS, Take along CWUHA flyers to promote who you are fundraising for and put them around the edge of your table. Or organise your own, get a room in community centre/club and charge people for tables, running a CWUHA table at the same time.
