100 Percent Somerset
100% Somerset is a brand that Somerset charities can use to proudly show that 100% of any money fundraised by them, stays with them in Somerset - and what better symbol to use for Somerset than an apple.
It's also an opportunity to raise the profile of Somerset charities and all the hard work that they do.
This year, to promote the 100% Somerset brand, ViSTA are bringing some high profile fundraising trainers to Somerset.
Michael Norton, OBE - Asking for Money...and how to enjoy doing it!
The Sheila McKechnie Foundation - Introduction to Campaigning
The Foundation for Social Improvement - Developing your Fundraising Strategy
Tamara Essex - Ten Steps to the Perfect Fundraising Bid

Other things you can do:
Dinner4Good - Invite friends round for supper and raise money for your favourite charity.
Apple day - This is an annual celebration of apples, orchards and local distinctiveness, initiated by Common Ground in 1990. It has since been celebrated each year by people organising hundreds of local events. Why not run an apple day themed fundraising event for your group. The Common Ground website has lots of ideas how.
A Fundraising Pack - Full of ideas and information that we can send to you.
What are you doing? Let us know what you plan to do for your charity during 100% Somerset, and we'll put it here.
