Want to fundraise but don’t know where to start? Try these tips and tricks.

Take the lead

Once you start your fundraising, go ahead and make the first contribution! Seeing that your cause is on a roll helps others feel inspired and makes them more likely to get involved.

Share, share, share!

Share your fundraiser on all your social media channels and motivate your close friends and family to do the same. Tag people that have already donated to motivate new people to join. This spreads your message further.

Add your why

No matter how you decide to share your fundraising, the most important thing is why you are doing it. Let your family and friends know why fundraising for GGRF matters to you.

Re-engage

Send a few follow up messages or emails. People can easily overlook your first announcement. Use your social media to keep people up to date with your progress as you hit different milestones (50% raised, 75% raised) and at the same time ask them to help you hit the next one.

Start with close contacts

Start by sharing your fundraiser with your close contacts—they are the most likely to donate. Try sending some quick personal messages to your inner circle to build momentum.

Thanks and shout-outs

Just like your mother taught you, send a thank you note! As more of your network gets behind you, keep thanking them on social media and make sure you continue to share your progress towards your goal.
