Turn Holiday Cheer into BRIGHT Run Support
The holiday season — with its warm spirit of generosity — is the perfect time to kick off your fundraising for BRIGHT Run 2026!
Getting started can be as simple as adding BRIGHT Run donations to your wish list in lieu of gifts and sharing it with family and friends.
If you’re in a workplace, the festive season is full of fundraising opportunities. Check in with your employer ahead of time and try one of these easy, crowd-pleasing ideas:
- Guess-the-Candy Jar: Fill a large jar with Christmas candy and challenge coworkers to guess the number of pieces. Charge $2–$5 per guess. Winner takes the jar home!
- Festive Gift Draw: Secure (or purchase) a bottle of wine, a holiday gift basket, or another enticing prize. Sell draw tickets for a set period and pick a winner.
- 50/50 Draw: A classic! Sell tickets, draw a winner, and split the pot.
- Holiday Bake Sale: Enlist family and friends for some seasonal baking and sell your treats.
- Craft Sale: Offer handmade ornaments or holiday décor pieces to brighten someone’s home.
- Gift-Wrapping for a Cause: Wrap gifts in exchange for donations — a win-win for busy holiday shoppers.
Not in a workplace? No problem! Every one of these ideas can be hosted virtually. Pick your favourite social platform, spread the word through a spirited social media campaign, and boost engagement through email if needed.
No matter how you celebrate, ’tis the season of giving. Keep BRIGHT Run close to your heart — and give your holiday fundraising a merry start!
