If you’re looking for something a little less challenging, then join us for our Comedy Night this October or our end of year celebration concert this November. Or if you would like to do your own thing, we’d love to help you raise as much as you can. Whether you hold a cake sale, host a pub quiz, or lay in a bath of beans, we can’t wait to hear from you. We are so thankful for whatever you choose to do.

Why fundraise for Merlin?

All around the world, natural disasters and political unrest threaten people’s livelihoods and destroy their communities, with consequences that last long after the TV cameras have gone. Every penny you raise will enable us to continue to support 20 million of the world’s most vulnerable people.

From Haiti to Pakistan, thousands of Merlin health workers are spread acrosss the globe, providing vital medical care to some of the world’s poorest people.

Undaunted and determined, Merlin saves lives. We deliver medical expertise to the toughest places. And we stay to build lasting health care.
