Pledging Your Birthday for a Cause

Are you the kind of person who never knows what gifts to ask for? You already have everything you need, or you don’t want your friends to buy you things you will never use? Maybe you’re trying to live a more minimalist lifestyle?

Whatever the reason, if you have decided you don’t want physical presents for your birthday this year, consider pledging your birthday for a charity cause that is important to you, and ask your friends to donate in lieu of gifts.

Harry has chosen to pledge his 21st birthday to not one, but four charities that all matter to him for different reasons. Harry could not decide between Save the Children Australia, Against Malaria Foundation Australia, Climate Council of Australia, and Greenpeace Australia Pacific so he has given his friends the choice instead.

By selecting all four charities as the beneficiaries for his birthday fundraising page, Harry has allowed each of his friends to support him, as well as the charity that resonates most with them.

Creating your birthday pledge fundraiser on mycause.com.au is simple and quick. All you need to do is enter your birth date, choose your charity (or charities), and upload an image. mycause will generate your fundraising page and it will become active four weeks before your birthday, so all you will need to do is share your page.

With thousands of Australian charities to choose from on the mycause website, you can find a cause that matters to you and pledge your next birthday to support the work they do.
