Fundraising is critical to the financial sustainability of Surf Life Saving. It involves the generation of charitable income from individuals and businesses, usually through donations, bequests, workplace giving (WPG), games of chance and special events.
Potential contributors generally fall into three categories:
- Those automatically interested, such as existing members, supporters, Nipper parents
- A group with natural links to the SLSC, such as equipment suppliers, other groups who share the same facilities
- Those in the community who might benefit from an SLSC project or use the beach during the year.
