World Gifts fundraising for community groups

World Gifts are a great opportunity to get together and have fun raising money. Together we can make such a difference. Whether it's with your class at school, friends, family or at church, fundraise as a group to buy a gift for someone who really needs it - or even a whole community!

World Gifts fundraisers

Here are students at All Saints High School in Brentwood singing about World Gifts to the tune of 'The Twelve Days of Christmas.' They organised various fundraising activities to raise an incredible amount of money to buy a range of World Gifts for CAFOD. Well done to all involved!

If you would like to incorporate music into your Advent fundraising for World Gifts, check out our 'On a Cold, Dark Night' Christmas Carol written especially for the World Gifts range.

Build a virtual village

A virtual village is a great way for parishes, schools and youth groups to fundraise for World Gifts.

All you need to do is choose what you want to be in your village from our catalogue or website , display your village using our posters and resources, and learn about the issues behind each gift.

Giving together is easy

  • Download the fundraising kits in the parishes or schools and youth pages with sponsor forms, resources, and more
  • Have fun displaying posters and getting your group to dream up ways of raising money
  • Buy your World Gifts as soon as you reach your target - either order online , by phone on 0207 095 5694, or by returning the order form at the back of a catalogue
  • Receive a Thank you poster and gift certificates for all to see and share
  • See how your gift helps someone in the developing world. Over the months and years to come, your community’s gift will continue to make a lasting, tangible difference
