Fundraising in celebration

You can dedicate your birthday, wedding, anniversary, or other special occasion to raise awareness and help support people living with axial SpA (AS).

Asking people for a donation instead of (or alongside!) a gift is a wonderful way to mark your special day, support NASS and raise awareness of axial SpA (AS).

Set up a special donation fundraising page. 

You can also set up a Facebook fundraiser to mark the occasion.

Top tips for maximising your fundraising

• Tell your story and add a photo: On your fundraising page, tell your supporters about NASS, and why you have decided to fundraise.
• Set a target: People with a target on their page raise significantly more than those who don’t.
• Ask people to add Gift Aid by mentioning the benefits of doing so on your page description: If they’re a UK tax-payer, this will increase their donation by 25% at no extra cost.
• Ask your employer if they offer ‘Matched Giving’: You could double your donation if your employer agrees to match the amount you raise.
• Tell us about your plans: We can offer fundraising support, balloons, sponsorship forms and collection tins to help make your fundraising a success.
• Tell the world! Be sure to tell the world about your fundraising activity! Share with friends, family and colleagues and ask people to dig deep and donate.
