## Examples of fundraising

as

## More fundraising images

We also use Flickr to publish other fundraising images that we use to illustrate
UK Fundraising content but which we can not find elsewhere. For example:

• 87 [photos of money](https://www.flickr.com/photos/howardlake/sets/72157621527268649/)(
including chocolate coins and Monopoly money!)

• 173 [photos of charity collecting boxes](https://www.flickr.com/photos/howardlake/sets/72157607997028380/)

• 53 [photos of fundraising books](https://www.flickr.com/photos/howardlake/sets/72157607997028380/)

• 20 [photos of fundraising regulation](https://www.flickr.com/photos/howardlake/sets/72157613420326691/)

• 157 [photos of charity shops](https://www.flickr.com/photos/howardlake/sets/72157607494736047/)

## Holiday photos

Fundraising activities are all around us. As a result, we’ve even shared fundraising
content spotted on our holidays:

• [Sidmouth Donkey Sanctuary](https://www.flickr.com/photos/howardlake/sets/72157607893860879/),
Devon

• [Isles of Scilly](https://www.flickr.com/photos/howardlake/sets/72157624843072405/)

## Sharing photos

We publish photos on Flickr for three reasons:

1. for UK Fundraising to use

2. to share interesting or useful examples of fundraising activities

3. so that others can share this fundraising content. All our photos are published
under [Creative Commons](https://www.flickr.com/creativecommons/) (Flickr is probably
where we first came across this sensible way of licensing content for sharing). 
This means that other people can use and embed our content on their websites at 
no charge, provided they credit us and link back to our original content on Flickr.

We have also donated many of our photos to **Photofoundation**, so that they can
be used by other charities, and can generate income for charities when purchased
by a for-profit organisation.

## Other fundraising images

There are of course many images about fundraising online, including other social
channels. For example, we use [Pinterest](https://www.pinterest.com/howardlake/)
to curate many other fundraising images, some of them our own, but most of them 
created by others.

Most other image collections though tend to focus on particular charities, fundraising
appeals or events. But we haven’t found an image collection that has been published
over so many years and which covers not just fundraising campaigns but also some
of the developing trends, channels and key sector-wide events.

So, do explore [UK Fundraising’s photo collection on Flickr](https://www.flickr.com/photos/howardlake).
