Fundraise
There are lots of ways that you can get creative or challenge yourself in support of our work to end female genital mutilation or cutting (FGM/C). For running opportunities scroll down.
If you have an idea and want to get started, simply click through to JustGiving and set up a fundraising page. Here is how to do that:
- Log into your account and click ‘Start Fundraising’.
- When asked ‘Are you fundraising for a registered charity?’, select ‘Yes, continue’.
- Search for ‘Orchid Project’ as the cause you want to support.
- Follow the instructions to complete setting up your fundraising page.
- Share that fundraising page with your friends and family.
You can also opt in to Gift Aid if you haven’t done so, by printing off the Gift Aid Declaration Form, filling it in and sending the form to our team.
Gift aid allows Orchid Project to claim 25% on top of your donation, from the UK Government. So, for every £1 you give, we’ll receive £1.25. Find out more about gift aid here.

Support us at your celebration
If you are celebrating your birthday, wedding, anniversary or any other occasion, you can make it extra special by raising funds to change the lives of the 4.3 million girls who are at risk of being cut each year. Ask your guests to contribute towards Orchid Project’s work, and let them know about how FGM/C can end with their help.
We’d love to hear your creative fundraising ideas to support our work to end FGM/C. To chat to us about ideas, and to receive materials, please get in touch with our Fundraising Team.
