I have heard this site is quite good for making easy to sponsor and donate to a charity

The charity you are raising for has to be registered on their site though.

i think there is a website for this kind of thing, try going on Sponsorme.com or something equally predicatble.

Yep, this was mine http://www.justgiving.com/mikes_marathon_2009/ although they have changed the layout since I created it. You can put your own photo and text etc. It can send emails after each donation received, pretty good really.

Best thing about it was that I didnt have to handle any cash, people can donate and the funds get transferred directly to the charity account.

Another vote for just giving, easier than paper plus you don't have to chase people up for money after.

Did it for FLM 2008.

What charity are you choosing?
