Fundraising

How Others Fundraised

 Many pupils, parents and teachers have raised money to get indoor rowing machines into their schools or use the machines they already have to generate funds for other projects or charities. Others have applied for funding from other organisations and generated money to help their schools that way. The case studies below are examples of how other schools have generated funds and hopefully will give you some ideas of what your school could do.

Quote - "One of the key parts of my job (definitely the most rewarding part) is giving young people opportunities to experience things and do things that they probably would never get a chance to do."
