How to get started

Why we need your support

Fundraising is the life-blood of ELHAP.

Like many front-line organisations, we have been hit hard by the financial down-turn. We now urgently need the support of the public if we are to continue providing a life-line to children, adults and families in East London.

How to get started

Fundraising is not about how much money you have, it is about who you know and how you use your contacts and get them involved.

A great start is to think about the networks you are involved with, tell them about ELHAP and find out if they might support us. This may be your work-place, sports club, place of worship, or Rotary club you belong to. If you're younger, it may be your school, college, Scout Association or Guides Association. You could also talk to family and friends, as they may also have networks that could be a source of support.

How we can help

Check out our Fundraising Ideas section and down-load our A-Z of Fundraising Ideas for suggestions on how you might fundraise. We are also very happy to offer support with any fundraising plans you may have, so please drop us a line or give us a call if we can be of help.

Finally, if you or anyone you know would like to visit ELHAP to see how your fundraising might impact our work, we are always happy to arrange tours. However, these must be arranged in advance - please get in touch with the fundraising team and they will be happy to arrange a date.

ELHAP Bridge can offer short term placements to “bridge the gap” for some of the children and young people left without school, college or day service provision due to Coronavirus.
