Fundraising
Fundraising is a great way of helping us continue our research into Marfan syndrome. The money you raise whether large or small will make a difference to the lives of many people affected by the condition. There are hundreds of different ways you can raise money for the Marfan Trust, whether it’s organising a quiz or karaoke night, or taking part in a sponsored run or walk. Download our A-Z of fundraising ideas.
For anyone taking part in sponsored walks, runs etc, we are happy to provide a T-shirt (free of charge), sponsorship forms and leaflets on Marfan syndrome.
Collecting boxes and Marfan Trust flag emblems are also available. Contact the administrator if you require any collecting boxes or flag emblems.
