Fundraiser [20693]

Guide Dogs (Dumfries and Galloway)

Are you looking for a volunteer role where you can make a difference by raising vital funds for Guide Dogs? With little time to spare, you can still join your local fundraising group at events or collections as a Volunteer Fundraiser.

Our fundraising groups are an important presence in our local communities. They organise a wide range of events and collections that raise vital awareness and funds for our life-changing services that support people with sight loss.

In this flexible role, you can get involved as much or as little as works for you.

You can help by:

Getting involved and supporting local events run by your team, which could include anything from quiz nights to coffee mornings, to collections or sponsored walks.
Using your communication skills to chat and tell people about Guide Dogs and why we need their support.
Helping spread the word about your team’s events on social media and to your local networks.
Using your imagination and creativity to suggest new fundraising ideas that could raise money for Guide Dogs. All suggestions are welcome!
