Fundraise For We Are Family

Every fundraiser, big or small, helps strengthen support for adoptive families across the UK.

Whether you take on a personal challenge, organise a bake sale, host a quiz night or simply ask friends and family to donate, your fundraising helps We Are Family continue creating opportunities for connection, peer support and community.

However you choose to get involved, we’ll be here to support you every step of the way.

Make A Donation Instead

Pick something simple

Cake sale. Coffee morning. Dress down day. Raffle. Vinted clear-out. Quiz night. Whatever works for you.

Choose a date

Big or small, every fundraiser helps.

Invite a few people

Friends, family, work colleagues, school communities or local groups.

Raise funds for peer support

The money raised helps keep support groups, talks and events running for adoptive parents.

WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS

Peer support can be life changing for adoptive parents. Having someone who understands the realities of adoption can reduce isolation and help families feel less alone.

The money you raise helps We Are Family continue creating spaces where adoptive parents can connect, share experiences and access support throughout their adoption journey.

✨ £25 helps a member attend a live talk and access guidance.
✨ £150 helps cover the cost of a family attending a We Are Family Big Day Out.
✨ £400 helps support a peer support group for a year.

Need inspiration?

From bake sales and coffee mornings to sponsored walks, dress down days, children’s craft sales, quiz nights, Vinted clear-outs and school or sports club fundraisers, there are plenty of ways to get involved. Whether you’re planning something small or organising a larger community event, our fundraising pack is full of ideas and practical tips to help you get started.

You can also create your own online fundraising page to share with friends, family and colleagues, making it easy for others to support your efforts.

If fundraising isn’t for you, you can still support We Are Family by making a donation instead.

Join families across the community
