Fundraise at University

Our world is under threat like never before. Globally, we’re all using the planet’s resources faster than nature can restore itself: we’re destroying forests, choking the oceans with plastic, decimating wildlife population sizes and causing devastating changes to the climate.  

Today’s young people will be the stewards of our planet in the years to come. If you’re at university, you care about the natural world and want to help us create a brighter future for generations to come, we are calling on you to join the fight for our world.  

There are a number of ways that you can support WWF and join the fight for your world. Whether you’re a RAG, a Student Union, society or sports team, we’re here to support you with all your fundraising.  

HOW CAN YOU SUPPORT WWF AT UNI

Fundraising for WWF can be done in many different ways and here are some of them: 

  • Nominate WWF as one of your Student Union or RAG Charities 
  • Take on a Challenge for WWF with Choose a Challenge 
  • Hold a fundraising activity in your society, or set up a WWF Society 
  • Organise a bucket collection for WWF
  • Get your halls or class involved with fundraising - host a bake sale, pub quiz or wild film night on campus
