Easy ways to fundraise
Whatever items you pop in a jar people love a good guessing game. You can even get creative and ask people to guess how many teeth a stuffed animal has in real life! This is perfect for your dental surgery’s reception desk and a great way to engage children. We even have pre-designed guessing sheets for you to download and print - just email our fundraising team fundraising@dentaid.org to access our downloads hub.
Hosting a cake sale in your workplace or dental surgery is a great way to engage with your colleagues and local community while raising funds for Dentaid. Make sure to create and print a copy of your unique JustGiving QR code, so people can buy a tasty treat without having to rummage round in their pockets for change!
Create a beautiful hamper to display behind your reception desk and sell raffle tickets. The more creative the hamper, the better! Speak to our 
In the wet and windy weather why not take your sponsored challenge indoors. Whether you prefer to walk, cycle, or swim, getting sponsored for a physical challenge is always a fantastic way to raise money.For even more in-practice fundraising ideas download our fundraising pack
How to manage donations
One of the easiest ways to collect fundraising donations is to set up an online JustGiving page. Creating an online fundraising page only takes a few minutes. To get started click here, and make sure to select Dentaid The Dental Charity as your chosen cause. Once your page is ready you can share the link with friends, family and your community.
You can also use a QR code to make donating even easier. To create a QR code for your JustGiving page simply add /qrcode/ in the address bar to the end of your donation page’s URL, like so: www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/dentaid-example/qrcode/, and your page’s unique QR code will appear. This will allow people to scan and donate using their phones.
