We work tirelessly on at Run for Charity.

Proven Ways For A Good Fundraising Amount For Your Next Charity Raising money for charity, especially if it is done regularly - can be a little more challenging than it sounds. Charity’s that organize their own events must not rely soley on the fundraising of runners, as in the past we have seen the most determined fundraiser & racer have to drop out due to injury or life commitments. Charity’s do an excellent job encouraging more and more people to take part in events and fundraise for their cause, however it is not as easy to convert investors to donate to the event.

Additional ways to fundraise for your event are: Merchandise Fundraising: Find the most cost effective approach to acquire merchandise including race t-shirts Collaborate early with suppliers to gain the best prices and ensure you request sustainable solutions. Consider selling a logo space on

your merchandise that a corporate can buy, they may even cover the costs of the production & there for all you all will be fundraising efforts for your cause!

You can move your items on the web or set up a stall at your walk-run occasion. Ensure you urge your occasion visitors to wear their gear on the big day. That way, any individual who hasn't yet bought a T-shirt will feel roused to do as such to get in on the good times.

Sponsorship:

Shortlist businesses that fit with your image, and might be interested in association with your charity. Look for collaborative marketing opportunities. Better still, by using their networks & resources they can the brunt of the work, and you can focus on your event.

Host a Rockathon: If you have to fundraise for an up and coming walk, ride, run, or another occasion, take a stab at facilitating a rockathon pledge drive with your loved ones! All you'll require are a couple of armchairs and some ready members.

In the weeks paving the way to the occasion, circumvent your locale and demand sponsorships for your rockathon.

Individuals can give a specific sum for a particular

timeframe spent "shaking out" (i.e. some big bucks for time consistently spent in a rocker).

Healthy Eating & products: Regardless of whether your runners will have to reduce carbs or quit drinking soft drink – there is a opportunity to promote healthy brands that can be bought from your charity in the lead up to the event. Utilise the chance to instruct good dieting practices to individuals from your chosen suppliers. You can offer tem marketing via social media, email, and physical and physical flyers. In return

ask for free products or very low wholesale costs & you will be on your way. Ensure that you have enough stock on event day, charity runners can get very hungry!
