Your fundraising

Each team member is required to raise a minimum of £450 in addition to the registration fee. Funds must be raised for the two nominated event charities who commit considerable time and resources to the event. We appreciate that fundraising can be a challenge in itself so we are an endless supply of inspiration and help through your Participant Information Pack, your Fundraising Pack and always being on hand to help where we can. Don’t be put off, it’s a lot more achievable than you might first think!

We ask that every participant uses the event’s online fundraising system in order that the Artemis Charitable Foundation can allocate funding between the two nominated charities. Direct donations to the event charities, or individual fundraising pages spread over all the alternative fundraising sites causes the charities considerable administration time to manage so please do everything through our site and the Artemis Charitable Foundation wherever possible.

It is a quick and seamless online experience — you will land on your very own, fully functional, fundraising page at the end of the online registration process. And we’ve already done all the hard work for you: generic text, photos and videos are all set up so even the busiest busy person can get fundraising straight away. If you have a spare moment, we encourage you to personalise your fundraising page, have some fun with it and maximise your donations!

You can fundraise as an individual or a team, or both. The online system will collate any personal fundraising amounts into your team total for you.

You can access your online account via the link in your welcome email, or via the online account links on this website.

What to do with offline fundraising

All sponsorship cheques must be made payable to Artemis Charitable Foundation who will allocate the funds between the two nominated event charities.

Download your sponsorship form here (PDF format) — The form will be available once the 2012 charity projects are confirmed.

Please ensure that you add any cheques as an offline donation to your online fundraising page and send it, with details of who it should be allocated to, to:

Sarah Willis
WildFox Events
Kindrochit
Ardtalnaig
Aberfeldy
Perthshire
PH15 2HX

We will then verify the funds on your online account before sending it off to Artemis Charitable Foundation to bank. To assist with allocating the sponsorship monies to the correct team/person, you may wish to collate all your donations before sending them to the address above. Please don’t send cash.

Gift Aid

Gift Aid allows us to maximise the benefit from your donations. This means that for every pound you give, we get an extra 25 pence from the Inland Revenue, helping your donation go further. Please be sure to include your postal code in order to register for this option. This may not sound like much but think of it this way, if you raise £500, Gift Aid will increase it to £625. So to ensure that you don’t miss out on this fantastic scheme, make sure your sponsors tick the gift aid box and include their name and full postal address, including postcode, if they are eligible.
