Fundraise for Us
Community fundraising is a wonderful way to bring people together, have fun, and make a real difference at the same time.
Fundraising Initiatives - Making a Difference Together
Whether it’s a quiz night, family fun event, sponsored challenge, coffee morning, or a creative fundraising idea of your very own, every initiative helps raise valuable funds that support our charitable services and the people who truly rely on them.
Could You Help Us Make a Difference?
If you are an enthusiastic individual, local group or organisation who would like to support CAVS through a unique fundraising event and connect our local community, we'd love to hear from you. We are also always looking for local businesses to choose CAVS as their charity of the year - our thanks go to Boyce Hill Golf Club, Stibbards, The Essex Chamber of Commerce and Sureserve Compliance Central Ltd for their fantastic support.
