The MCS Fundraising Awards
The MCS team really appreciates all the fundraising you do to ensure that our conservation work around the UK coasts can continue. Some of our fundraisers love supporting MCS so much they often organise more than just one event.
MCS wants to recognise our fundraisers for all the hard work they do and so we’ve introduced brand new Fundraising Awards.
How do I get involved?
We will keep a record of how much you are raising at each event so don’t worry if your first event doesn’t raise as much as you plan, it will all be added together. In return you’ll get a fantastic series of certificates taking you through from being a Bronze fundraiser to Platinum.
-
If you‘ve raised £1,000, which buys 10 underwater surveys to identify areas that need urgent protection, you’ll be a Bronze fundraiser.
-
Raising £5,000 would run a MCS Basking Shark survey off the UK coast for a whole year, making you a Silver fundraiser.
-
£10,000 could allow MCS to influence European fisheries policy for 3 years and you will be a Gold fundraiser.
- You will become a Platinum fundraiser if you’ve collected £15,000 in total! This could help set up 30 more MCS local volunteer groups and spread our message even further.
If you would like to be included in the MCS Fundraising Awards, you can sign up by emailing fundraising@mcsuk.org. We can include all fundraising events that have taken place since 2008, so email me your name and when you last fundraised in aid of MCS and I can make sure your hard work is included.
MCS Fundraiser of the Year
All fundraisers will be considered for the MCS Fundraiser of the Year Award, which recognises not only the number of events you have organised and your total sponsorship, but also the commitment you have shown in supporting MCS projects and campaigns throughout the year.
If you would like to discuss the Awards or Fundraiser of the Year, please contact Tori Williams on 01989 566017 or email fundraising@mcsuk.org.
