Fundraising tips!
Here are some top fundraising tips from Mark who topped the Ride for autism leaderboard last year raising over $6,000.
1 - Enthusiasm and Persistence
- Be enthusiastic about promoting the cause and fundraising in general; your energy, passion and conviction will translate to donations.
2 - Reach as far and wide as possible
- Utilising emails, social media, group messages and linking them back to the fundraising page is vital.
- Regularly updating your content, whether via the blog, social media, email, or text keeps it engaging for both people that have already donated and people who maybe considering doing so.
3 - Make it personal to you
- It can often be difficult to stand out from other worthy fundraising initiatives that ultimately are competing to secure support.
- Let your story, the reason for participating and connection to the cause do the talking!
