Due to the fact that fibromyalgia is such a life-altering debilitating condition our fundraising efforts have to be tailored to fit our limitations. We have, therefore, tried to come up with ideas that do not involve us in a lot of mental or physical stress or excessive drain on our pockets.

Raising money through Sponsorship
Raising money through sponsorship can be a very rewarding activity, not least because of the sense of accomplishment when you have completed a challenge, but it can bring people together and you can have a lot of fun in the process.

FMA UK like to give our fundraisers as much support and encouragement as possible, and are always keen to hear about what ideas you have come up with. And remember husbands, wives, and the rest of the family can do sponsored events as well :)

You can download our sponsor form from here. We also have a fundraising pack which includes the sponsor form as well as some helpful tips. You can find the pack here.
 

We can also take single or monthly donations as well if you want to make a donation that is not related to a sponsored event.  If you want to see who is already raising funds on our behalf just go to this page and look at the list.

Buy products from this site and help FMA UK

FMA UK is a registered charity administered by unpaid volunteers from the Chair down through the ranks, and as such it relies on donations and organised events to operate. You can help with this by purchasing some of the items that we carry. You can by books, FMA pins, awareness ribbons, pens, and lots more. All funds that are raised through this go back into helping the charity raise the awareness of fibromyalgia.

Search using Everyclick to raise funds.
This is an easy way to help the fibromyalgia cause. When you use the internet, instead of using goggle or any of the other search engines, use www.everyclick.com and nominate Fibromyalgia Association UK as the charity of your choice. Then each time you use it, a small donation will be made without costing you anything.

Use e-Bay to Support FMA UK
You can sell an item on e-Bay and donate a proportion of your sale to FMA UK. The donation comes directly from your e-Bay account through the e-Bay for Charity scheme. Recently it has been made easier by e-Bay partnering with missionfish.org so that sellers can manage their donations without leaving the e-Bay site. Sellers need to declare which charity to support by registering with missionfish.

Give or Take
Give or Take’s aim is to make it effortlessly simple for people to save masses of money on their shopping bills, or raise oodles of cash for charity for free.

"Once upon a time, not so very long ago, but a long time ago in Internet time, a few of us were watching the incredible growth in online advertising and sales. We started thinking ‘Why don’t we create a way for charities and customers to benefit from these vast sums exchanging hands?’ So we used our expertise to create an effective way people could support charity at absolutely no cost at all. We put shopping and giving together and crossed our fingers. Happily it looks like we can open our eyes again as people seem to be warming to the idea just like we did."
