This October, we’re inviting our wonderful Wolfram Syndrome community and supporters to come together to raise vital funds, increase awareness and bring hope to everyone affected by Wolfram Syndrome.
Running throughout October, alongside WS Global Awareness Day on 1 October, our autumn fundraising campaign is all about getting involved in a way that works for you.
Whether you want to walk, take on a fitness challenge, give up a favourite treat, organise your own event or simply make a donation, there’s a way for everyone to get involved.
Choose your way to take part
Walk for Wolfram is back!
Following the fantastic response to last year’s challenge, Walk for Wolfram returns with a new twist.
This year, there’s no set distance. Simply choose your own target and complete it throughout October at a pace that works for you. Whether you walk 1 mile or 100, every step can help raise funds and awareness for Wolfram Syndrome.
Take part on your own or get together with family, friends, colleagues or your school and make it a team challenge.
Workout for Wolfram
Prefer running, cycling, swimming or heading to the gym? Workout for Wolfram lets you set a fitness challenge that suits you.
Choose your own distance, activity or personal goal and work towards it throughout October. You can take part individually or get a team together and encourage each other along the way.
Give Up Give Back
Could you give up a small treat during October and donate what you save?
It might be your takeaway coffee, cake, chocolate or another regular treat. Put aside the money you would normally spend and donate your savings at the end of the month. You could even ask family and friends to sponsor you along the way.
Hold your own event
From a cake sale or coffee morning to a quiz night, craft stall or your own fundraising idea, you can choose something that works for you.
Big or small, every fundraiser can make a difference.
Prefer to support us your way?
You don’t have to take on a challenge or organise an event to be part of Fundraising Together for Wolfram.
If you would simply like to make a donation, your support will help us continue our vital work supporting children, young people, adults and families affected by Wolfram Syndrome.
Join us from anywhere in the world
We’d love to see families and supporters across the globe getting involved this October.
