Planning a fundraising event to help kids?

Plan a community-organized fundraising event benefiting Children’s Wisconsin

We are thankful to the many generous Community Champions — individuals, businesses and grateful families holding community fundraisers that benefit Children's Wisconsin. Each year, these community fundraising events raise critical funds that support the kids and families of Wisconsin.

We recognize the energy and heart that go into planning a fundraising event, and our team is here to support your fundraising efforts while ensuring your event is safe and successful. From event planning FAQs to marketing your event, we're here to help!
