How it works

Get Started

Decide on your fundraiser

From bake sales to charity balls, there's no shortage of ideas for fundraising! Or you could always sign up to one of our events.

Create an online fundraising page

Personalise your page and tell your story.

Spread the word

Make your first donation and then ask your network of friends, family and colleagues for support using text, email or social media!

The funds

Funds raised may go to Aspect's world class research program, adult community services, autism friendly equipment and necessities for our schools, as well as early childhood support. 

Online vs Off-line

Setting up an online fundraising page is the easiest way to start fundraising.

Going online is a social media-friendly way to fundraise and a great promotion tool. It's easy to provide your supporters with a link to your page via email or text.

For offline fundraising activities, you will need an Authority to Fundraise letter which allows you to fundraise on behalf of Aspect. If you are not creating an online page, please contact the Community Fundraising team at initforautism@autismspectrum.org.au or read through our Fundraising guidelines and fill in your Fundraising Proposal here with your planned fundraising activity and return it back to us. 

You can also call us on 1800 288 476 (AUTISM).

Our team will contact you to discuss your fundraising idea and give you any help you need. We will provide bank details and steps on how to make a direct deposit to our bank account.
