Fundraising Tips
Tips for Top Fundraising Success
- Start early.
- Begin with the people you know will offer a donation. This will ensure success on your first day of fundraising and will boost your confidence for the more difficult asks.
- Ask everyone-no pledge is too small and every little bit helps.
- Smile when you ask for a donation.
- Always reciprocate. If you bought chocolates to support a friend's child's school program, they can sponsor you!
- Ask for an increase over their previous donation.
- Take your pledge materials everywhere you go. You never know who you will meet.
- If you've registered online, e-mail everyone in your address book requesting a donation.
- Always thank people for their pledge and inform them as to how their donation helps.
