Do you wish to make your celebration more meaningful? Whether you are celebrating a birthday, wedding, confirmation, jubilee, family gathering or any other event, you can use the occasion to make a difference for others.
Many people wish for a contribution to a good cause instead of traditional gifts. When you, your friends and family support NRC, you contribute to our work for people forced to flee. This gives your celebration a personal touch, while also providing vital support to displaced children, young people, adults and families.
We are here with the tips and materials you need to make your fundraiser a success, regardless of how you choose to celebrate. If you have questions, please contact us on fundraising@nrc.no.

Inspiration
40th birthday
Jone and Svanhild chose to fundraise for NRC instead of receiving presents for their 40th birthday.
Wedding
Silje and Fredrik encouraged their guests to donate to NRC when they got married.
"The fundraiser went above and beyond. We could not have asked for a better wedding present. It is a gift that we get to celebrate with everyone who contributed, AND everyone who receives aid. For life and love! ❤️”
