Fundraising Ideas

If you would like to discuss your fundraising idea with us – please contact jenny@mosaicfamilysupport.org

Mosaic events help support the vital work we do with families in Dorset.

Fundraising for Mosaic not only raises money, but awareness of the work we do.

Help Us to Fundraise

Help us raise the essential funds needed so we can continue to support families in Dorset.

Our fundraising is usually designed to be sociable, fun, and is vital in contributing to the day camps, family activities and the day to day running costs of Mosaic. We pride ourselves in taking a gentle approach to fundraising and do not cold call or knock-on doors.
