DIY fundraisers

DIY fundraisers are a fun and simple way to connect with friends and family and raise funds to support BC’s kids. From virtual events to personal challenges, all you need is a great idea and an online fundraising page.

By hosting a DIY fundraiser, your support plays a profound role in helping our dedicated health care providers respond to rapidly evolving needs and continue to deliver the highest level of care to kids and families.
