Here are a few fundraising ideas:

  • Ask fellow students and university staff to give a £2 donation to wear their brightest shirts to lectures.
  • Hold a RAG Raid and organise a bucket collection in your city – be as colourful and LOUD as you can to spread the news about Loud Shirt Day!
  • Plan a Jailbreak event where groups of students try to get as far away as possible from your campus for FREE. Ask for a donation from students to take part and organise a prize for the group that gets the furthest!
  • Nominate your friends on social media to post a loud shirt selfie – our own version of the Ice Bucket Challenge or the No-Makeup selfie - and make your social media feed as loud as possible to raise awareness of the work AVUK do.
