4. What is the minimum fundraising amount?

5. Why is there a minimum fundraising amount?

Because the SportsAid pays for charity places. As a charity we need to make sure that not only do we cover the cost of these places, but also make money for our charitable work. This is, after all, a fundraising event for SportsAid.

No, the tax claimed on Gift Aid donations does not form part of your fundraising total. However, you should encourage your sponsors to tick the Gift Aid box where appropriate as this is an important source of additional income for SportsAid.

7. Is there a fundraising deadline?

Fundraising deadlines are set six weeks after the event. If you have any problems in meeting this deadline you should contact SportsAid as soon as possible.
