FUNdraising for The Mix!
Together we can make a lasting difference for young people around the UK.
How to let your supporters know what we do at The Mix
The Mix is the UK's leading digital charity for under 25s, reaching over 6 million young people each year with free and confidential support on any and every issue.
The power of your pound
Every £1 you raise will make a huge difference to the lives of young people.
£1 promotes a Mix young ambassador sharing their story to campaign for change on social.
£15 trains a volunteer moderator on a community - a free and confidential "youth club online" for young people.
£25 funds a life-saving call to our helpline, so an isolated young person can speak to a trained volunteer about any issue from suicidal thoughts to family issues.
£50 funds a counselling session for a young person struggling with their mental health to build coping skills and resilience.
Setting up an online FUNdraiser
The simplest way to ask friends, family or colleagues to sponsor you is to set up an online sponsorship page.
