Cool Earth | Fundraise for us

FUNDRAISE FOR US

In these challenging times, Cool Earth’s supporters are getting creative in their approaches to helping communities in need.

Millions of the world’s most vulnerable are already living with the consequences of a changing climate on a daily basis. We must work harder than ever through health and climate crises to help local people put food on the table, protect their forest and plan for the future.

Our supporters do amazing things to raise funds for Cool Earth. From birthday and wedding fundraisers, to shaving their beards and selling their paintings. There’s no limit to how you can get involved. Although fundraising may look a little different during this challenging time, there are still so many ways to get involved and raise money for a great cause.

Need some help or inspiration about how to fundraise? Check out our Hall of Fame and grab yourself some of the fundraising resources we’ve put together for you.

All donations will help us to continue supporting, developing and growing our network of community-led conservation programmes around the world, now and into the future.

Have a Birthday for the Rainforest

THE ADVENTURISTS

If you’re feeling brave, why not cross America on a kite, canoe down the coast of Africa then drive to India on a lawnmower? The Adventurists will set you on your way and make sure your mid-life crisis protects lots of rainforest.

We depend upon the forest for everything. But it is being destroyed at a faster rate than ever.

Some of the ways our wonderful supporters are raising funds already

Want to set up your own birthday fundraiser? CLICK HERE Lily's Birthday Fundraiser After feeling ‘desperately helpless about the health of the planet’, Lily decided to make a difference. She told us she feels empowered to use her own resources to contribute positively to change and encourages others to do the same. Setting up a birthday fundraiser for Cool Earth on her facebook page she turned her birthday into a present for the planet, not a bad way to celebrate, we think. Thank you, Lily.

To see more of Graham's work CLICK HERE Beauty on Canvas After seeing first hand how deforestation is destroying the habitat of incredible rainforest birds, Graham is now committed to capturing their beauty on canvas. He creates and sells his beautiful paintings of endangered birds to spread awareness and raise money for rainforest charities like Cool Earth - helping to protect the rainforest that these beautiful birds call home.

Cycling for the Climate Committed to raising money for climate action, Conor completed an impressive 150km bike ride around Richmond park during lockdown. Although his friends and family stayed at home, they all came together to sponsor him and make a difference, raising £1000 for our rainforest partnerships. Conor chose to fundraise for Cool Earth to take effective climate action - supporting local people to keep their trees standing.

Christmas Cards that Keep Trees Standing Phoebe Sherwood creates and sells beautiful christmas cards through her website and donates 20% of her profits to Cool Earth. By creating and sharing what she loves she is raising money and bringing awareness to a great cause. Phoebe says there’s no time like the present especially when it comes to saving the rainforest and helping to reverse climate change before it’s too late.

Wedding Fundraiser Linus and Carro generously asked guests at their wedding to donate to Cool Earth instead of giving typical wedding gifts. They invited their friends and family to a three day party, asking them to skip the fancy presents and give everything to something more important. “We strongly recommend this to all modern couples - it gives so much more.

My Beard for the Planet Bill’s fundraiser put a smile on our face from the moment we saw it. Pledging to ‘deforest his face’ for the planet, Bill Burke’s bushy beard got the chop. And with it, he raised over double his target, making nearly £600 for Cool Earth’s work. It just goes to show that an unusual approach like sacrificing facial hair can really get your friends and family digging deep. Thank you - Bill.

“It is the combination of protecting rainforest habitats and ecosystems alongside empowering and making use of the skills of indigenous peoples that I think makes the work you do so important, and Cool Earth as a charity so unique.”
