It’s nearly that time again! Spring is upon us and we’ve started planning for Make May Matter 2024.

If you’ve not come across it before, Make May Matter is a time where Feed The Hungry supporters and donors organise and take part in sponsored events and activities, aiming to raise vital funds for Feed The Hungry. With your creativity and compassion, you can contribute to providing essential nourishing meals for those in need.

There are countless ways to get involved and organise your own events throughout May. Consider hosting a charity walk or run, where participants raise money for each mile completed. Or put on a community bake sale, inviting friends and neighbours to contribute homemade treats with proceeds going towards the cause. For the fitness enthusiasts, a sponsored dance-a-thon or skip-ser-cise can bring people together while making a difference to others.

Make May Matter previously…

Steve took up the challenge to cycle 90 miles in two days. He smashed his £150 target and raised an amazing £485 for Feed The Hungry International Aid programmes. We are so grateful!

A team of volunteers helped to raise over £2600 for Coventry foodbank, Feed The Hungry’s largest UK project, by walking an 8 hour route that took them to every foodbank centre around the city of Coventry.

The Fundraising Toolkit

If you are up for the challenge, to make it simple to get started, we’ve put together a fundraising toolkit to help give ideas and provide resources to make your activity run as smoothly as possible.

Increasingly, it’s becoming less common to carry cash. To help collect money for your sponsored event, we can provide you with a dedicated online sponsorship page. By using our fundraising system, instead of other similar websites, it means that more of the money you raise goes directly to Feed The Hungry. You can apply via the Fundraising Toolkit.
