Set up your preferred fundraising platform (e.g. Facebook or iDonate) Here you can decide on a fundraising target and track your donations. Family and friends can also leave you notes of encouragement and goodwill.

RETURN YOUR FUNDS

When everything is wrapped up, don’t forget to return your money if in cash, coin or cheque form. If you have chosen to fundraise online, the funds will (in most cases) automatically be transferred into Galway Simon’s account.
