taking our culture forward

What difference will your support make?

By nominating Culture Vannin as your Charity of the Year, the funds you raise will directly support our work. From Manx language classes and music workshops to performances, films, educational resources, and online archives, with your help we can share Manx culture with people near and far.

Ready to make a difference?

Here are some creative fundraising ideas:

  • Themed Events & Days: Host a Manx-themed day at the office, featuring Manx food, music, and dress. You could also organise an event like a Manx ceili or music night where ticket sales or donations go toward supporting Culture Vannin’s work.
  • Sponsored Challenges: Get your team involved with sponsored challenges like a sponsored walk along the Isle of Man’s heritage trails or take part in an event that showcases the island’s scenic beauty. Teams can fundraise through pledges and share their progress with the community.
  • Manx Bake-Off: Hold a Manx-inspired baking competition, featuring traditional Manx recipes. Participants can pay an entry fee, and the event can include a sale of the baked goods with proceeds going to Culture Vannin.
  • Employee Auctions & Raffles: Organise a fun auction or raffle with prizes donated by employees or local businesses. Themed prizes could be tied to the culture of the Isle of Man, such as local crafts, tickets to cultural events, or Manx-inspired artwork.
  • Matching Donations: Encourage employees to donate, and match their contributions as a company. This can double the impact and encourage greater participation in fundraising efforts.
