There are two main options for causes:

1) Set up an individual fundraising page for your cause and ask supporters to wear a Christmas Jumper on December 8th and donate to your page

2) Share the link to the event page with your supporters and ask them to set up their own individual fundraising page for Christmas Jumper Day in aid of your cause (where family and friends can sponsor them for wearing their Christmas jumper). Fundraisers will be able to select your cause when setting up their personal page and all proceeds raised through their page will go directly to your cause.

How Can Companies Get Involved?

Companies can get involved by setting up a group fundraising page via the Christmas Jumper Day Event Page, in aid of their chosen cause. All they need to do is click the ‘Start Fundraising’ button, choose the cause that their page is in aid of and activate their page.

They can then organise a ‘Wear Your Wooley to Work Day’ and ask employees/customers/supporters to make a donation to this page.

When the page is set up and activated, the link can be shared with employees via internal communications or companies can use the free QR code creator on their page, to create a QR code for the company noticeboard/reception area etc. (just click the share button!).
