Get arty with your wellies and add a splash of colour, then put them on display and ask for donations. You could even try and fill them with coins.
Give your oven some welly and rustle up some boot shaped biscuits and buns for a bake sale. Or simply decorate with boot shaped icing.
Wellies make great plant pots. Fill your wellies with flowers to show your support. You could even sell your floral arrangements to raise money.
