Fundraising Tips for Your Team
Share your story! Share the reasons why you are walking. Utilize social media and your Walk With Me team page to tell your story and ask for donations to help you reach your goal.
Use Boundless Facebook fundraising. Remember to utilize our Facebook Fundraising app. Once your team is registered, each member can raise funds using Facebook, too! Be sure to keep track of the funds raised to notify Easterseals Development Coordinator, Olivia Harris at [email protected]
Create a fitness challenge. Challenge yourself and your teammates to do a fitness challenge and collect pledges for each milestone you perform. Whether it is dancing, riding a bike, or running a marathon, you choose the challenge and encourage friends to take part and collect pledges with you. Use social media to promote and encourage your viewers to donate. Make note of donations and notify Olivia Harris by email at [email protected].
Research matching gifts. Speak to your employers about their matching gift program and ask your teammates to do the same! This can make your donation go farther!
Host a virtual happy hour with games. Gather some peers or coworkers to host an online happy hour filled with virtual games like murder mysteries or trivia games. Ask for suggested donations to attend and throughout the happy hour.
