The Fundraising Idea Library contains over 200 ideas, from classic bake sales and sponsored events to innovative digital fundraising and social media challenges. New ideas are added regularly.
The Grant Finder Database (Full Access only) is a searchable, regularly updated list of UK grants and bursaries available to young people going on expeditions, Scout trips, DofE, and overseas adventures — with eligibility criteria, amounts, deadlines, and application tips.
The Creator Hub is our free learning centre where you can learn digital skills like AI tools, Canva, social media strategy, and more — skills that will help you fundraise better and look great on your CV long after your trip.
Full Access members can apply to be featured as a Ways2Raise Success Story — sharing their fundraising journey on the site to inspire other teenagers. It's a brilliant thing to put on a personal statement or CV.
