If not, [register here](https://breastcancernow.org/wear-it-pink/sign-up-for-wear-it-pink "Sign up for Wear It Pink"). ## How you could raise £100 Depending on how many people you get involved, it can be surprisingly easy to raise an amazing £100 with around 20 people. You can do this [at work](https://breastcancernow.org/wear-it-pink/plan-your-event/how-to-wear-it-pink-at-work "How to wear it pink at work"), [at home](https://breastcancernow.org/wear-it-pink/plan-your-event/how-to-wear-it-pink-in-your-community "How to wear it pink in your community") or [at school](https://breastcancernow.org/wear-it-pink/plan-your-event/how-to-wear-it-pink-at-school "How to wear it pink at school"). First, encourage everyone to wear pink and donate around £2 for the privilege of looking extra fabulous. Then get just a few friends or colleagues to help you bake or make a few items for a food sale, wherever you’re holding your event. Ask for a donation of a pound or 2 per yummy treat and watch your collection box fill up. ## How you could raise £300 Like raising £100 – you want to start out with encouraging everyone to wear pink with you, donating a few pounds each. Ask a few people (we recommend asking around 5 for a helpful hand) to help you bake treats for your bake sale: anything from delicious cakes to a healthy treat. Try to set everything out nicely and add a few fun games or activities. You can put out our pink sweepstake, ask people to guess how many sweets are in a jar, or take part in a raffle for a donated prize. Make the area fun and full of activities people can get involved in, like a photo booth using hilarious pink props or even set up a quick game of [bingo](https://breastcancernow.org/media-assets/g1rnibzy/bcn_2034_wear-it-pink_bingo.pdf "Bingo"). ![A group of people in a warehouse with furniture in the background.

Have a read of the above, and plan all of that into your wonderful fundraising day: ask everyone to wear pink, hold a delicious bake sale with the help of some friends and play a sweepstake and other fun games you can [download on our website](https://breastcancernow.org/wear-it-pink/downloadable-resources "Downloadable resources"). You could even make it competitive – hold a sweepstake for the best dressed team or person or get those who didn’t wear pink to make a double donation. Why not head to a local hang-out spot and host your very own pub-quiz? You can use our [pink quiz](https://breastcancernow.org/media-assets/mhgdqy0l/bcn_2000_wear-it-pink-quiz-2026.pdf "Big Pink Quiz PDF") or write your own. Ask everyone if they’d like to donate to enter, and battle it out for the master of the minds. Or think about what would make your event unique – do you have a hidden talent or hobby that would make your wear it pink event stand out from the crowd? Whatever you do, make it fun and inclusive for everyone. Large or small, your fundraising matters and will go such a long way in creating a better future for all those affected by breast cancer. So, thank you – and good luck! ### £100 could... bring an expert speaker to a Living with Secondary Breast Cancer group. They can share key information with people who have metastatic (secondary) breast cancer online and in person. ### £300 could... help 10 people get answers by calling our free helpline. No question is too big or small. And all calls are answered by breast care nurses and trained staff. ### £1000 could... go towards holding an event in parliaments across the UK. Where we can speak to decision-makers about improving diagnosis, treatment and care. And they can meet with people affected by breast cancer. ## Ready to get involved? Wear It Pink this October.
