The Roald Dahl Foundation is funded in part through an endowment, as well as through additional fundraising. Notable supporters include the UK national sponsored reading scheme Readathon ®, the Friends of the Roald Dahl Foundation, payroll-giving, as well as many school children and private individuals who give of both their time and money. In addition to this, we benefit from the REVOLTING RECIPES series of cookbooks and through performances of an ambitious programme of new orchestral music, based on Roald Dahl's stories and rhymes, specially commissioned on our behalf. You can find out more about these commissions by clicking here.
