Fundraise for Freedom with IJM

What could you do for freedom?

We have some pretty creative fundraisers that are helping liberate people all over the world. From donating your birthday, to cycling in Scotland, to hosting a bake-sale, to organising a music night - create your own idea or be inspired by our IJM champions! How will you bring freedom?

01. Get Started

Setting up your fundraising campaign is easy. Decide what you’re going to do and pick a campaign name. Then choose a photo and share a little bit about IJM on your page.

Top tip: Get personal―tell people what fundraising for IJM means to you and why you want to be part of ending slavery in a lifetime.

Make sure to download our guide above to kick start your fundraiser, then launch your page, here.

02. Share

Once your campaign is set up- you’re ready to share with friends and family―whether that’s social media, emails, whatsapp or good old fashioned face-to-face. Why not get creative by making a film or shooting some photos?

Top tip: tag @IJMUK on social media so that we can see what you’re doing and like or share too.

03. See Freedom

The work of IJM is only possible because of supporters like you. Every single penny you raise will go towards the fight against slavery and injustice. Thank you for being a modern day abolitionist!

Top Tip: Share stories of rescue with your supporters―show them how they’re making freedom possible.

Current fundraising challenges

40 for 40 Million

The IJM community invite you to the latest #StayAtHomeChallenge! Can you do 40 burpees and give to rescue the 40 million people trapped in slavery?

Just Cook

What would you normally be spending eating out? Cook and work out how much you've saved 'eating in' compared to the same meal 'eating out', and donate the difference to IJM! Share the recipe with us, and nominate 5 friends to do the same. And why not get together on Zoom and it could even feel like a dinner party...
