In-Memory Fundraising for Charities and Good Causes
Create a meaningful in-memory fundraising page that gives family, friends and supporters a lasting way to remember someone special while supporting a good cause.
People's Fundraising makes it easy to create an in-memory page for a charity, school, community organisation, faith group or other good cause.
Share the page with a dedicated link or QR code, receive donations online and bring contributions together in one place.
A thoughtful way to remember someone special
In-memory fundraising allows people to celebrate a life while creating a positive legacy for a cause that mattered to them, their family or their community.
A dedicated People's Fundraising page gives supporters a clear place to make donations and understand why the chosen cause is important.
The page can be shared privately with family and friends or more widely through funeral notices, memorial communications, email, social media and printed QR codes.
