Fundraising Online
Raising funds for the Chelsea Pensioners' Appeal can be a rewarding and satisfying experience.
Our partnership with Just Giving gives you the chance to create your own fundraising page and make collecting sponsorship much easier. It is simple to do and allows you to write your own message or blog news on how your event is progressing. It also gives your supporters the chance to leave their own comments and encouragement, giving you a great way to remember the occasion.
Why set up a Just Giving page?
1. It makes life easier - donations to your fundraising page go automatically to The
Chelsea Pensioners' Appeal, so no need to chase sponsorhip.
2. Just Giving automatically claims gift aid from UK taxpayers.
3. It's safe and totally secure.
4. It's also a fun way to promote your fundraising event and gives you complete control over the content.
So if you have a great idea of how to raise money for The Chelsea Pensioners' Appeal, why not create your own fundraising page and learn more about how Just Giving works. There is also the option to create an In Memory page.
