Cancer Research UK (CRUK) is inviting students and young people aged 18 and over
to come up with and implement [an innovative fundraising idea](https://fundraising.co.uk/2017/02/06/effective-fundraising-ideas-for-charities-in-2017/).
The Go.Give.Gain competition is aimed at those who “want to use their passion and
entrepreneurship to make a real difference to the work of Cancer Research UK”.

The winner will receive “an exclusive three week placement at Cancer Research UK
or another major UK company”. CRUK suggests that the competition is an opportunity
to gain fundraising experience for young people’s CVs will actually generating funds
for cancer research.

The competition is part of CRUK’s Myprojects initiative which lets individuals set
up online fundraising pages and choose which research project or which kind of cancer
research they wish to fundraise for.
