Great ways to fund raise:
|
1) Set up an inspiring, personal webpage! View pages set up by your teammates for some great ideas!

2) 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.
|
|
3) Ask your family and friends to help you fundraise and get the word out. View a great Sample Fundraising letter

4) Brainstorm business owners and managers who would consider Corporate Sponsorships or donate goods to help you fundraise.

5) 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.
|
|
6) Ask the people you work with for help.
|
7) Try a combination of fundraising ideas, including a raffle, a fundraising letter, online fundraising, a party, a wine tasting, corporate involvement, etc...
|
8) Start fundraising now! The earlier you start, the more you will raise.
|
9) Donate to yourself. When people know you have made a donation to yourself they will feel very comfortable helping you.
|
10) Last but not least -- if you don't ask, you won't receive! Why not start today?
