Team Page 1.) WEBPAGE: Team Challenge will set you up with a fundraising page where friends and family members can securely donate to your cause. Simply e-mail them your fundraising page! See these great examples:

Julia's Page
Andrea's Page
Ruby's Page
Corporate Matching 2.) MATCHING GIFTS: Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any charitable contributions made by their employees. This is a great way to double your fundraising goal! 
Look at this list of supporting companies.
Fundraising Letter 3.) LETTERS:  Team Minnesota will send out letters to the first 50 friends and family members of your choice. We’ll even provide a sample template, include envelopes with your return address and pay for the postage.
You can use this template!
SA Team 4.) GET CREATIVE: Use your Team Challenge Mentors and staff as your personal resources to help you brainstorm ideas that will work for you! Meet with them one on one and develop a fundraising plan. Check out these creative ideas which have worked for past participants.














































Great ways to fund raise:
  • Contact everyone you know. Even if you have not talked to that friend for a while, it's never too late to reach out to a friendship.
  • Ask your family and friends to help you fundraise and get the word out.
  • You will be surprised by how many people will help you with your fundraising goal; you will even receive donations from people you may not know. Just remember to thank them. Take your fundraising letter with wherever you go -- you never know when you'll get an opportunity.
  • Ask the people you work with for help.
  • Try a combination of fundraising ideas, including a raffle, a fundraising letter, online fundraising, a party, corporate involvement, etc...
  • Start fundraising now! The earlier you start, the more you will raise.
  • Donate to yourself. When people know you have made a donation to yourself they will feel very comfortable helping you.
  • Last but not least -- if you don't ask, you won't receive!  Why not start today?
