Colour Day Fundraising Activities - FAQs
WHAT CAN A COLOUR DAY FUNDRAISER RAISE MONEY FOR?
A school colour day can raise money for a number of different causes that are important to your school. Many schools choose to raise funding via a colour day to fund new playground equipment, technology upgrades, shade sails, air conditions or to help pay for school trips and events. Some schools also donate a portion of the money raised to charity.
The purpose of a school Colour Run is to raise money for a great cause, boost school spirit, improve student wellbeing and create a memorable experience for the whole school community to share. A school Colour Run is a great way to bring people together and create lasting memories. Plus, it's a great way to show your support for a good cause! Whatever the cause, a school colour run is a great way to raise money and have fun at the same time!
DO YOU NEED TO BE A CERTAIN AGE TO PARTICIPATE IN A CRAZY COLOUR DAY?
No, there is no age limit for participating in a Colour Fun Run. The event is open to people of all ages, and the colour powder used is safe for everyone.
HOW DO YOU MAKE THE COLOUR POWDER USED IN COLOUR FUN RUNS?
The colour used in our events is made from a powder that is safe and non-toxic. The powder is made from corn starch and is dyed with food-safe dyes. When the powder is mixed with water, it creates a colourful, slime-like substance that is perfect for running through!

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO USE A CRAZY COLOUR DAY AT SCHOOL FOR A FUNDRAISING ACTIVITY?
The best time to hold a colourful event is in the spring or summer. This is because the weather is usually warm enough to allow people to be outside for extended periods of time, and the colours will show up better in natural sunlight.
WHAT DO I NEED TO WEAR FOR A CRAZY COLOUR DAY FUN RUN?
Since you will be getting covered in coloured powder during the race, it is best to wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty. White clothing is especially good for showing off the colours! You should also wear comfortable shoes that you can run or walk-in.
