Day 1 - Show your commitment!
Kick start your fundraising by making a self-donation and lead by example! Make a self-donation of $25 and watch as others follow your good example. People are more likely to give if they see that you have too.
Day 2 - Reach out to family!
Reach out to three family members and ask them to donate $25 each, getting you $75 closer to your goal.
Day 3 - Ask five co-workers to sponsor you for $10 each.
Ask five co-workers to give $10 each. That gives you another $50 towards your goal.
Day 4 - Ask your boss to make a donation.
Ask your boss for a company contribution of $50. Don’t forget to check if your company has a matching gift program too! Better yet, encourage all your donors to check with their employers if they have a matching gift program. It’s a great way to double your donations!
Day 5 - Get social
Use your personal fundraising page URL to direct donors to your Participant Centre and post a link on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, etc., and ask your network to support your fundraising efforts for K4K. If five people donate $10, you’ve just raised $50!
Day 6 - Ask businesses you frequent
Ask two businesses you frequent like your dentist, dry cleaner, hair stylist, regular coffee shop, etc., to give $15 each to raise $30 towards your goal!
Day 7 - Reach out to your community
Ask five people you know from your extracurricular sports team, your child’s school, or your place of worship to donate $10 each.
Day 8 - Turn to your friends!
Ask five friends to donate $20 each. Send them an email from your personal Participant Centre to ask for support to give your friends a safe and secure way to make a credit card donation to your fundraising efforts.
Day 9 - Ask your neighbours
Ask two neighbours to donate $10 each, adding another $20 to your goal.
Day 10 - Hold a fundraiser!
Ask your company if you can hold a fundraiser and charge employees $5 for a dress down Friday. With ten co-workers participating, you’ve just raised $50!
