Fundraising Nights & Community Partners at Off The Wall Kids (London Ontario)
The email subject line is always some version of: "Can you donate a gift basket for our school raffle?"
We appreciate every organization doing good work in London. Here is the straight answer from Off The Wall Kids (539 First St, East London, Argyle near Fanshawe College) — and what we do offer instead of raffle prizes.

"Do you donate to schools, charities, or raffles?"
No. We do not provide cash donations, raffle prizes, auction items, gift cards, or in-kind donation baskets.
When a school, team, or organization needs support, we offer our Community Partner fundraising night program instead.
"What is a Community Partner fundraising night?"
Your group sells admission tickets to a private event at Off The Wall Kids at our regular admission price. You host the event on your chosen night. We charge your group a discounted partner rate, and your organization keeps the difference as fundraising profit.
It is a private event — a two-hour window in the facility. We may open later or close earlier that day depending on schedule. This is not a full-day public closure.

"Who is this for?"
Schools, sports teams, daycares, dance studios, church groups, and community organizations in London and Middlesex County looking for things to do in London that also raise money.
Not for individual raffle requests — the program is built for group ticket sales to a hosted play event.
"How is this different from a regular birthday party?"
Birthday party packages are for private celebrations — 90 minutes in a party room on schedule, unlimited facility play until close, included party food bundles. Book through the party portal: Birthday Parties London Ontario
Community Partner nights are fundraising events — your organization sells tickets and keeps the margin. Different paperwork, different goal.
"Can the public still drop in on a fundraising night?"
Private event nights use a scheduled two-hour window. Drop-in guests already inside clear before that window. Check the Today's Hours bar for how the day is structured — we may adjust open/close times.

"What do kids do at a fundraising night?"
The same indoor playground families know — donut slide (tube slide), ballistics arena, jumping pillow, ninja course, toddler areas, concession. Socks required for everyone past admission. Waivers for every guest.

We cannot be every school's raffle table — but we can host a night your families actually show up for. That is the Community Partner program.
