Why Charities Should Use Wristbands to Fundraise.

Why Charities Should Use Wristbands to Fundraise

Key Takeaways: Wristbands are an affordable, high-visibility way for charities to raise funds and spread awareness.

  • High Visibility: Supporters wear wristbands daily, turning them into walking ambassadors for your cause.
  • Customisable: Silicone wristbands can be printed, embossed or debossed to match your charity’s branding.
  • Dual Purpose: They raise money while also spreading awareness long after an event ends.
  • Cost-Effective: Bulk ordering keeps costs low and fundraising margins high.

Charity wristbands first became popular in 2004 with the introduction of the LIVESTRONG® bracelet. This bright yellow charity bracelet took America and the rest of the world by storm and remains one of the most cost-effective ways to fundraise.

There are many reasons why they have remained so popular for fundraising or raising awareness of a particular cause or need, including :

·         They are lightweight and comfortable to wear

·         Because of their flexibility in design they are also fashionable and highly trendy

·         A wide range of colours to fit in with the colours of your cause or brand

Typically, it’s silicone wristbands that are used for charity wristbands. Another reason they’re so popular is because silicone wristbands are fully customisable and can have unique features such as embossed, debossed or laser engraving. This, together with the wide range of colours, means you can have a totally unique wristband which will give you maximum exposure.

Boost Awareness & Engagement
  • Wristbands help spread your message everywhere supporters go.
  • Perfect for awareness campaigns, charity walks and community events.
Low Cost, High Impact
  • Bulk production keeps costs low and fundraising profit high.
  • Easy to customise for specific campaigns or causes.

The Wristband Company are very efficient and helpful, they have supplied us with clear design guidelines and proofs to sign off prior to production.
