FUNDRAISING TIPS
Jazz up your page and include photo’s and details on why you’re trekking the Simpson Desert for Youngcare. This shows your potential donors why you care and how their support will be making a difference in young people’s lives.
Lead the way and add a donation to yourself first to show your commitment as well as encouraging others to support you!
Make a promise to your donors, if you reach a certain fundraising target you’ll… go without coffee/alcohol, take on an extra training session, embarrass yourself in some way, or anything else that might motivate your supporters to give more – plus it’s a great way to incentivise your donors and keep them connected with your challenge!
Connect your fundraising page to your social media and update all your friends and family on your progress. Use our resources above to help spread the word!
Update your email signature with our personalized email signatures. Email everyone you know and tell them what you’re planning and how they can support you!
Ask your workplace if they are able to help support by matching every dollar you raise
Either in person, or virtual, a fundraising event is a great fun way of raising funds and awareness. Think a bake sale, car wash, zoom trivia night, online raffle, lucky numbers game, work morning tea, or in lieu of a birthday or celebration, ask your friends and family to donate to your page!
