Fundraising
Action for Children raises money through corporate partnerships, fundraising events (such as sponsored runs) and through its partnership with the Methodist Church.
The charity is also involved with several large fundraising events, including Byte Night – an IT industry event which raises money to prevent youth homelessness, and Never Mind The Business – a music-based quiz night for businesspeople.
The Big Egg Hunt is the charity's latest fundraising activity. The largest ever Easter egg hunt will take place in London in the Spring of 2012, in partnership with Faberge and Elephant Family.
200 artists, celebrities and designers have created and painted meter high fibreglass eggs, which will be placed in selected locations around central London. The public will then be encouraged to find the eggs and text their location. Auctions of the eggs following the end of the hunt will also benefit the charity.
