On 8th March, we celebrate International Women's Day, a call to action for gender equality and a global day to honour the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women.
The countdown to the London Marathon is upon us! This year, on 26 April, many runners will not only run 26.2 miles, but they’ll do so to raise funds and awareness for a charity of their choice. This dedication and effort can result in large donations and awareness for your charity.
Blue Monday, which falls on 20 January this year, is given the unfortunate title of the most depressing day of the year. The concept was first developed by a professor who calculated the date based on metrics like season, day of the week, cold weather, dark nights and mounting post-holiday credit card bills, among other things.
Shopping, hectic work schedules, travel, time with friends and family. The holidays are a festive, but busy time of the year and we often neglect ourselves in the process, including our self-care.
Planning a race is a great way to build awareness for your charity and bolster donations.
While summer is coming to an end, there’s reason to be excited about the autumn– this time of year, there’s no shortage of exciting charity runs, walks and challenges.
At the Charity Clothing Company, we delight in knowing that people around the world want to support causes that are important to them. The Charities Aid Foundation reports that the UK public donated £9.7 billion to charities in 2016 – more than 60 percent of people gave money to a cause. And, in 2017, overall charitable giving was up nearly 3 percent.
For the seventh year in a row, Prudential RideLondon is right around the corner on 3-4 August! The event, hailed as the world's greatest festival of cycling, is comprised of multiple closed-road activities, all of which raise money for charity (the event has raised more than £66 million since 2013).
Charity challenges are a wonderful way to spread your organisation’s message and raise critical funds. Today, these challenges take the shape of everything from traditional “fun runs” to festivals for people and their pets to serious mountain treks.
