Set up Sponsor-me.org

The Sponsor-me.org has been designed to allow you to concentrate on fundraising for your chosen cause, whilst Charities Trust looks after the administration of your event.

So you've taken the plunge and decided to fundraise for your chosen charity(ies), but you want to concentrate on your fundraising and not the boring administration that goes with it. Don't like the hassle of paying money into your own bank account or even holding on to loose change?

If this is you, Sponsor-me.org will make your fundraising much easier. It is designed to manage the administration of your fundraising efforts, leaving you to do what you do best-cajoling your sponsors and collecting the most money you can for your chosen good causes or charities.

2 Easy Steps to Open your Sponsor-me.org account and create a Fundraising Page:

  • Register with a Charities Trust online account by simply clicking on Fundraising Account. Your log in details will then be sent to your email address.
  • Sign in to Charities Trust "My Account" page and click onto the Create Fundraising Page, found on the left hand side, under Fundrasing account. 

Opening a Fundraising Page could not be easier, as the most accessible route is for online registration which is available day or night.
