TIPS FOR BETTER FUNDRAISING
- Remind potential donors that you are JOINING 1000 WALKERS to help
KEEP THE ARTS ALIVE in our local communities!
- You can raise a lot of money from MANY SMALL DONATIONS
- Set a PERSONAL FUNDRAISING GOAL and tell everyone what your goal is to motivate them to support you
- Keep your PLEDGE SHEET WITH YOU AT ALL TIMES
- Begin your pledge sheets with SAMPLE DONATIONS at appropriately
inspirational levels
- Ask EVERYONE YOU KNOW to sponsor you in the walk -- family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, or people who belong to your church, club, etc.
- Ask YOUR EMPLOYER OR LOCAL BUSINESSES to sponsor you or your team
- If you are walking with your family, ask your SPOUSE OR SIBLING to collect pledges too
- Ask in ways that feel comfortable to you -- IN PERSON, EMAIL, OR MAIL
- QUID PRO QUO -- go back to everyone you have supported over the years in other fundraising events
- COLLECT DONATIONS IMMEDIATELY -- it's easier than waiting until after the Walk
