It's up to you where you get your colour powder but our team can help organise it all for you if you wish. Prices start from $2 per runner for a generous amount of powder (most inclusive providers only provide approximately 100g where we recommend more than this for a standout Colour Run experience).

Go Raise It IS NOT a DIY option - our team manages getting your fundraising from start to finish. We provide automated emails, sharing links and multiple options for automated prize systems to help increase participation.

GUIDES TO MAKE YOUR EVENT EASY TO RUN
We provide full guides to help you plan and run all sorts of fundraising events and athons. Some providers will send along some inflatables for your event day but you will still need to provide volunteers and plan the rest of your course if you are running a fun or colour run. If you really want to have a hands off event day we recommend working with a full event provider like Zing Activ (our Colour Fun Run partner) who will provide a full service event for you (and with our low fundraiser fees this is a very affordable option for some schools).
