Halloween Fundraising Ideas
Halloween is creeping up just round the corner. Why not celebrate by organising a spooktacular virtual fundraiser to raise money for Parkinson’s UK?
This Halloween might not look like it normally does but doesn't stop you having some fun!
Let’s get spooky: Trick or treating might not be as we know it but nothing stops you grabbing your broom stick and wizards hat and dressing up in a Halloween fancy dress for a donation. Could your whole team at work or friends and family take part on a virtual call. You could have a different costume every day of the week and share on social media!
Pumpkin competition: Invite all your friends and family to take part in the ultimate pumpkin carving competition. Ask people to pay a donation to take part and have a halloween themed prize for the winner. Showcase all decorated pumpkins on social media and get friends to vote for the winner.
Monster Bake Off: Bring out the pumpkin pie and the haunted ginger biscuits and vote for the winner. You will need to bring out your best decorating skills for this one as the winner will be on looks and not taste due to current restrictions.
Monster Movie Fest: Have a sponsored movie marathon at home. Give your friends and family a list of monster movies to watch so they can join in too. You could even watch together virtually. See who gets the most jumpy!
Halloween Quiz night: I nvite your friends and family to take part in a devilishly challenging virtual pub quiz. Each person who takes part makes a donation. Download our very own quiz here https://www.parkinsons.org.uk/get-involved/quiz-night-thank-you
Ghost walk: W hy not organise a route friends and family can take for a sponsored ghost walk or challenge them to a night walk. Phone them while they are out on the route to tell ghost stories along the way.
Spooky Window/Garden Trail: Get together with neighbours to decorate your windows or gardens, and organise a Spooky Halloween Trail around you and see how many you can spot with the kids while out - ask for donations online and vote for the spookiest decorated abode.
Sponsored Halloween Fun: Have your own household fun - the kids will love it! Get sponsored by family and friends to have a spooktacular dress up, try some apple bobbing, get decorating those toffee apples and have a go at pumpkin carving too. Round your evening off with some ghostly tales and make it a Halloween to remember whilst helping those living with Parkinson’s.
