We live in a fast paced world where spare time is a luxury, and we do not have as much as we would like. Nevertheless many parents / grand parents / friends will make thier time available to assist with their children's swimming club.
The Volunteers dedication is the backbone of our fundraising activities.
Maintaining low fees makes fundraising a necessity for survival. The competition for donations is fierce and fundraising committees look for innovative ways to raise money to subsidise their shortfall in funds. A whole host of innovative fundraising ideas are on offer:
- mangoes
- chocolates
- spices
- sunscreen
- wine
- personalised books
- tea towels and plates to name a few...

and have come a long way from where mothers were once expected to bake cakes, and organise raffles. And regardless of how innovative and high-tech fundraisers become, there will always be a need for simple ideas as well - sausage sizzles and lamington drives continue to raise dollars each year.
Volunteering your time to help raise money will be a rewarding experience. You will give your time without expecting anything in return and you will make a difference in your swimming community. You will make life long friends and get satisfaction from your achievements.
If you have a successful fundraising idea that you would like to share with us, please contact us and we will be happy to include it. Fundraising is a constant activity for our non-profit organisation, and is a great way to get parents involved with their children's swimming club.
All members of the club are encouraged to assist in fund raising activities.
