How to fundraise for us

There are lots of different ways you can raise money for YSS! The success of the work undertaken at YSS relies on income generated through a wide range of sources, including grants from charitable trusts, support from corporate sponsors, contracts secured from the statutory sector and generous donations kindly gifted to YSS from members of the public. 

Donate

If you'd like to make a donation, there are a number of ways you can do so.

Online: Simply click the 'donate' button to the top right of this page, and follow the instructions on the screen. You can choose to donate any amount and you can direct your donation to a specific service or fund within the charity. 

By Post: If you would prefer to send your donation in the post, you can do so by writing a cheque to 'YSS' and sending it to our Head Office in Worcester: Polysec House, Blackpole Trading Estate West, Hindlip Lane, Worcester, WR3 8TJ.

Fundraise

At YSS we are always humbled and inspired by our brilliant fundraisers who take on new challenges to raise money to support our work. From the Worcestershire Law Society who held a spectacular raffle and gala dinner, to the Redditch Recorder Group who raised money by playing tunes outside their local supermarket, to our Young Carers who organised a sponsored walk and took part in several supermarket bag packs, our fundraisers go to extrodinary lengths to raise money to help YSS continue to support marginalised people.

If you've been inspired to join our generous group of brilliant fundraisers, why not take on a challenge and run a half marathon, complete a challenging cycle race, take part in a tandem skydive or make a splash at a swimathon? Or, if you'd prefer to organise your own event, why not set up a cake sale at your school, club or community group, organise a quiz night or arrange a sponsored jumper day at your place of work? 

Create your Fundraising Page

If you are taking part in a fundraising event on behalf of YSS to support vulnerable children, young people, adults and families across Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin, please set up a Fundraising Page here. Don't forget you can get in touch with us by following us on Facebook at facebook.com/OfficialYSS, or send us a tweet @OfficialYSS - we'd love to hear from you!
