**Simon Scriver has once again created some fun for fundraisers with a charity emoji
name quiz. And it has sparked variations on the theme by others.**

 

The original ‘charity name emoji quiz’ was posted by Simon ([@ToastFundraiser](http://www.twitter.com/ToastFundraiser))
on Twitter on 7 April, with acknowledgement to Nikki Bell ([@charitynikki](http://www.twitter.com/charitynikki)).
Which charity names can you spot?

## 1. 10 Christian charities emoji quiz

 

It was followed the next day by [Robin Peake](http://twitter.com/robin_peake) who
came up with his version focusing on Christian charity names, appropriately acknowledging
the original inspiration.

## 2. 10 Welsh charities emoji quiz

 

Then Sam Coles ([@CentenarySam](http://www.twitter.com/CentenarySam)) contributed
her version of Welsh charities in emoji.

This was met with a positive response from IoF Cymru:

3. 14 arts and culture charities emoji quiz

 

There’s more to come! [David Burgess](http://twitter.com/davidburgessfr) has created
a version of arts and culture charity names in emoji format – and kept going past
10 to 14.

We’ve covered [charities and emoji](https://fundraising.co.uk/tag/emoji/) on UK 
Fundraising in the past, and even mused on the idea of what a [fundraising emoji](https://fundraising.co.uk/2015/06/18/what-would-a-fundraising-emoji-look-like/)(
or set of emoji) might look like.

 

For example:

 

 * [WWF USA uses emoji in endangered species fundraising appeal](https://fundraising.co.uk/2015/06/05/wwf-uses-emoji-in-endangered-species-fundraising-appeal/)(
   5 June 2015)
 * [Macmillan uses emoji treasure hunt to encourage people to explore its website](https://fundraising.co.uk/2016/07/18/macmillan-uses-emoji-treasure-hunt-encourage-people-explore-website/)(
   18 July 2016)
 * [How to turn negative emoji into positive charity support](https://fundraising.co.uk/2017/11/29/turn-negative-emojis-positive-charity-support/)(
   29 November 2017)

 

Have you used emoji successfully in your fundraising? Either for an ask, or for 
communicating with supporters?

 

**What might your 10 emoji quiz about your charity look like?**
