WELCOME TO RAG!
We're here to ‘Raise and Give’
University of Portsmouth Raising and Giving (RAG) is a volunteer run service whose aim is to organise enjoyable fund-raising events with all profitable benefits being given to three chosen charities. We help by organising events such as sky-diving, paintballing and our famous raids! Not only do we aim to help worthy causes, but also to have fun doing it with crazy fancy dress and a friendly social team.
RAG aims to raise as much money as possible for its chosen charities by organising events that any student can take part in. One of the greatest things about RAG is that you are doing a good deed whilst having an awesome time.
Basically, we raise money and give it away (to charity obviously, not just anyone!)
2009/10 is going to be huge for Pompey RAG as we aim to smash last year's record breaking fundraising efforts!
RAG has yet to nominate it's charities for this year and you, the students, get the chance to vote for who you think we should be raising money for. There will be an online vote coming soon to this very web page or if you don't trust the interweb elves to get your vote to us you can do it the old fashioned paper way at Freshers Fayre.
Every student is automatically a member of RAG for free!
Yes you heard it's free so you have no excuse not to get involved!
We know that some of you might want to get involved more or less than others so theres a few options for you:
1. Come to RAG Events or Raids and have a great time doing something good.
2. Join the RAG Mailing List so you don’t miss out on anything.
3. Organise your own outRAGious charity event.
4. Get your club, society or mates to organise a charity event.
5. Join the RAG Committee!
for more information on any of the above just email rag@upsu.net
RAG is an awesome opportunity to meet new people, learn new skills and try different things, not to mention looking fantastic on your CV... :-)
