Martha has some great volunteering and fundraising opportunities available to your staff.

Volunteering

Our volunteer opportunities for teams of people range from projects in the gardens of our homes to supporting our organised fundraising events through the year. We have found some companies like to combine their volunteering with fundraising activities.

Barclays for example have sent teams from local branches along to our fundraising events to help us to run our raffles and auctions on the night, and kindly match the monies raised at the event through their employees matched giving scheme. Pfizer’s have chosen to raise money to support their volunteer days at our homes in Deal. They raised over £2,000 through cake bakes and climbing the 3 Peaks which they then used to help support their work in our gardens which included clearing overgrown areas to build raised beds and vegetable patches for our residents to use.

There’s no end to the ways you can raise funds for Martha Trust from sponsored bike rides and coffee mornings to skydives. You might even want to consider supporting ‘Martha’s Sporting Summer’. With 2021 promising to be an amazing summer for flagship sporting occasions, you and your colleagues could look to support Martha through fun themed Summer Sports Days. From holding sweepstakes, dress down days with a sports related theme to holding an afternoon cricket tea.
