Fundraising

Change for change

Ask your family, friends and colleagues to empty their pockets every evening for a week/month for APEC. Small change soon builds up and you might be surprised at the amount raised

Office Olympics

There are many events you can compete in to become an Office Olympic champion. Why not try...

Speed typing - who can type the most, accurately over a minute?

Synchronised chair swiveling - make this more fun by doing it to music

Bin basketball - who can get the most balls in the bin in one minute?

Who can make the longest paperclip chain in a minute?

Foodie sales

Have a break from the usual 'sandwich at the desk' routine and take it in turns with colleagues to become the 'tea lady'. Make and sell snacks such as sausage rolls, samosas, cakes, flapjacks or mini fruit salads. Donate your profits to APEC. You could combine this with the 'come dine with me' approach and vote for the best snack provider at the end of the week/month with the losers paying a donation
