Challenge & Sporting Events

Take on a challenge and make every mile, lap, or step count. Sporting events are a powerful way for you to raise funds for Inter Care’s medical shipments. Whether you join an organised event or create your own, we’ll support you with fundraising tips, stories from the health units we support, and encouragement every step of the way.

Leave a Legacy

Leaving a gift in your will is a powerful way to support Inter Care’s work far into the future. Legacy gifts help us continue sending essential medical supplies to clinics and hospitals that rely on our support. Every gift, large or small, creates lasting impact for communities across sub‑Saharan Africa.

Recycle your Unwanted Things

Your unwanted items can help fund vital medical aid. Inter Care recycles jewellery, foreign and old currency, used stamps, and printer cartridges to raise money for shipments to rural clinics and hospitals in sub‑Saharan Africa. Every small item adds up to life‑changing support for healthcare workers who rely on our supplies.

Community Groups

Community groups play an essential role in supporting Inter Care’s mission. Whether through a special collection or running your own community fundraiser, your group can help provide vital medical aid to rural clinics and hospitals across sub‑Saharan Africa. We can also arrange a speaker to visit and help bring the impact to life to inspire your members.
