Not all gifts to the Foundation are financial. You can help in other ways too, for example as a trustee or part of our Foundation Network. Read on to find out how.
The Foundation launched the 1%ers programme in October 2018 to encourage orienteers to consider making a small gift in their will to the work of the Foundation.
The Orienteering Foundation is registered with several Give While you Shop schemes. By registering and using one or more of these schemes, online retailers will make a donation to your chosen cause for every purchase you make.
Got a big challenge in mind? Running a marathon? Climbing the Three Peaks? Your own personal adventure? Whatever it is, why not consider doing it to raise funds for the Orienteering Foundation.
Orienteering is predominantly run by volunteers, including teams of event helpers; planners, organisers and controllers; committee members; and many other roles that keep the sport ticking over. The club or other body that you volunteer for will pay expenses for costs like travel/petrol. Now many individuals are very happy to volunteer for free, and often don't claim those expenses. If that applies to you, why not consider claiming and donating the expenses to a charity, such as the Orienteering Foundation?
