Our Big Fundraiser for Wildlife 2022!
Following the success of 2020’s fundraiser for the Scottish Seabird Centre, we ran another fundraising campaign to raise some much needed funds for the wildlife charities we support. After two difficult years during covid, a lot of charities and businesses were struggling to continue due to a lack of income, and that included Creature Candy. The fundraising campaign not only helped raise funds for our charities, but also for us as a small business. By the end of the campaign, we had donated over £20,000 worth of products and funds to these charities.
About the campaign
We asked a number of naturalists, TV presenters and influencers to help us with our fundraising and the response was overwhelming, as you can see by the names listed below. Each person offered to champion one of our animal designs as well as the associated charity, and sign 100 x A4 prints. These prints were sold for £25 each, with 50% donated to the associated charity. The other 50% came to Creature Candy (minus costs) to help us develop the business and allow us to support many more charities in the process.
We’d like to say a huge thank you to all the people listed below that helped us (some from the very beginning of our journey in 2015), and also thank you to all our customers and supporters.
