Under the Fundraising Acts, anyone wishing to raise money for charitable purposes on must hold an authority to fundraise issued by that organisation. So before you get started, Variety – the Children’s Charity of Victoria will need to an Authority to Fundraise letter. This will be processed once you set up this fundraising page and a staff member reviews your fundraising proposal. On receipt and approval of your application (this may take up to 5 working days), an Authority to Fundraise letter will be provided. Please note you cannot start fundraising until a letter of authority has been issued by Variety – the Children’s Charity
