Fundraising is not only a great way of making money for a charitable cause, it is also a fantastic way of raising awareness about issues that matter. Change a Life is all about participation, and with increased participation comes the increased potential to direct funds to where they are needed.

As a Computershare employee, regular payroll donations are the most effective way of ensuring a steady flow of funds to Change a Life.

How do I launch a fundraising idea?

Events such as quiz nights, cake stalls, jewellery stalls, book sales, fun runs and auctions are always an effective way of generating funds, and a great way of uniting people in support of the cause.
