Fundraising

At MASScot, we do not receive any funding from pharmaceutical companies and we do not have corporate members.

As a result, your support is vitally important to us to enable us to continue to operate independently and provide support to people in Scotland with skin cancer. We fundraise in a variety of ways and aim to have an educational element to our efforts. We are incredibly grateful to those who have donated to support our work and we are always open to fundraising ideas.

If you would be interested in fundraising for MASScot then we would be delighted to hear from you and to support you in your efforts.


The Kiltwalk is back!

We were delighted to see the Kiltwalk return in 2024.  If you would like to take part and fundraise for us please let us know.

Great Scottish Run

The Great Scottish Run in Glasgow (10k) is set for October 6th, 2024. Lauren and her husband have already registered for this event and are fundraising for MASScot. If you’d like to join them, please don’t hesitate to let us know.


Other Activities

Perhaps there is something you would like to tick off your life goals list, whether that’s completing a sponsored run, or jumping from a plane from 10,000 feet!

We’ll gladly help to promote your fundraising efforts and provide you with some MASScot materials, such as a t-shirt, flyers and leaflets to help raise awareness of our work. We will also reimburse your expenses for the cost of the activity to ensure you are not out of pocket.
