What is the 40 minute fundraise?
In Zambia a lesson lasts for 40 minutes. Will you fundraise for 40 minutes to fund new classrooms and teachers’ houses at Simakakata Community School? You can jump, busk, run, bake and much, much more. Learn more >

Students from Bucks New University washing cars to raise funds.

A couple of options here.

1. Ask your neighbours or your parents if they’ll pay you to wash their car(s).

2. Get a group of friends to commit 40 minutes of their time. Ask the owner of a local car park if you can wash cars there. Set up 40 minute shifts, and see how many cars you can wash.

If you get a lot of interest then feel free to go for a double lesson and up your car washing time to 80 minutes.

A couple of tips to you help promote your event

• Here are some posters you can download to promote your event in advance.
• If you are going for the group car wash option then try to sell tickets in advance. Some people might not even turn up, but you get their donation anyway. Result!
