How can you advertise your fundraiser?
Utilise social media
Once your community fundraising page is live, it’s time to spread the word! Start by posting the link on local Facebook groups or community pages. Share it widely—tag local press, and they might even feature your story in the paper or an online blog. We will send you a pack of resources to help you on your way. The more you share, the faster you'll reach your goal!
Who else could you approach LOCALLY?
If litter is an issue in your community, others likely agree.
Your Council
Reach out to your local councillor (find their contact info on the council website) and explain how a 2 Minute Station can help. It’s proven to reduce litter by 61%. You can also gather community support through social media or local discussions, which will strengthen your case.
Your council may have grant funding available or options for community petitions.
Businesses
Local cafes, shops, community centers or businesses near the affected space might be willing to support the fundraising for a Station. It’s great PR for them and shows they care about the community.
Schools, community groups and places of worship
Talk to schools about getting involved, especially if they’re near parks or areas in need. Schools can fundraise through dress-down days or creative events, and we can provide educational materials to help students learn about environmental care.
GOOD LUCK!
