Easy guide to hosting your party
Step 1 – Set a date and invite all your friends! Decide how much you will ask each guest to donate and let them know.
Step 2 – Choose your dishes, either from the fantastic recipes in our booklet or whatever else you like!
Step 3 – Dinner Party time! Have a great time – don’t forget to collect all the donations on the night and take lots of photos…
Step 4 – Share the photos of your party with us on social media!
Step 5 –Donate the funds you have raised on our Challenge webpage, using a credit card or debit card: https://www.crowdrise.com/Friends-International-SE.
Your dinner party will be part of the Skoll Challenge, an exciting six week challenge where we are raising urgently needed funds for our work with marginalized children and young people. We can receive $50,000 matched funding from the Skoll Foundation, so what you raise could be doubled or even tripled! This really is the best time of year to raise money for Friends, so we hope you will get involved!
