I'm trekking the 10 Peaks Challenge for Youngcare
As CEO of Brighton Homes, I’m proud to support Queensland based charity Youngcare. We’ve been in partnership with Youngcare since 2019, and it’s a cause very close to my heart.
Taking part in the 10 Peaks Challenge is an incredible opportunity to step outside my comfort zone while raising vital funds and awareness for young people living with complex and permanent physical disabilities.
Too many young Australians are left with no choice but to live in aged care or institutional settings simply because there are no suitable alternatives. Youngcare is changing that by fighting for freedom, dignity, and choice, ensuring young people can decide where they live, who they live with, and how they live their lives.
Any support that you can provide is greatly appreciated as every contribution makes a meaningful difference.
Fundraising
Fundraising 101: You've Got This!
FUNDRAISING TIPS
Jazz up your page and include photo’s and details on what you’re undertaking 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, run an extra 10km, 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, work morning tea, or in lieu of a birthday or celebration, ask your friends and family to donate to your page!
