Behind every JustGiving page is a story worth sharing.

Your fundraisers don’t just raise money. They raise awareness, change conversations, and help save lives. See the 2025 JustGiving Awards finalists and more on the JustGiving Awards Hub.

From skydives to cake sales to ultramarathons, your fundraisers went above and beyond for you this year.

The 2025 JustGiving Awards are all about celebrating the incredible stories behind those people smashing it for your cause. It’s our way of celebrating impact, kindness and inspiring the next generation of giving.

How nominations work

In 2024, the awards broke all kinds of records, with 18,000+ nominations and 50,000+ votes, with individuals and teams celebrated through categories like Young Fundraiser of the Year, Creative Fundraiser of the Year, and Endurance Fundraiser of the Year.

This year, nominating someone’s easier than ever.

We’re starting with the most powerful, moving, and inspiring fundraiser stories: all you need to do is tell us who you want to nominate, link us to their page, and share why they inspire you.

Who do I nominate?

Nominate anyone who’s used JustGiving to do something amazing for your charity in the past 18 months.

People raise money for all sorts of reasons, some personal, some emotional, and all of them meaningful. And while every one of them deserves the spotlight, we’re after those who truly move people. Because if you found them inspiring, they might just inspire an entirely new generation too.

Nominate as many people as you’d like. This recognition goes a long way, because we’ll let them know they’ve been nominated whether they become a finalist or not!

PRO TIP: How to find your top fundraisers | If you’re not sure who to nominate, you can search up your top fundraisers in your JustGiving Reports (requires JustGiving’s Grow Plan). Learn how to see who raised the most money for you over the last 18 months.
