Fundraising
Fundraising is used by brigades to raise extra funds in their
local community. It is not undertaken on a state wide basis. Fundraising
means any form of appeal, collection, raffle or activity conducted
in order to obtain income by selling specific goods or services
with a percentage return to the “seller.”
Individuals, companies or businesses with a fundraising initiative should read the CFA Fundraising Kit - pdf 770k and contact their local brigade, group or regional headquarters.
Interested? Contact your
local regional office, who can help you locate your local
brigade or group.
Sponsorship
CFA recognises the value of its brand and the community we reach.
