Need ideas or tips on how to raise money for your Walk?
Set a team or personal goal.
Ask your company to sponsor you & form a corporate team.
Challenge another office, branch, or club in your school. Competition is a great motivator!
Walk in honour of someone you know or love who has lupus.
Place announcement/memo in your employee break room, mail room, copy room etc.
Tell everyone about the walk by leaving details on your voice mail.
Ask your mail carrier, delivery driver, teachers, neighbours, coaches, & store clerks for a donation!
Have a sign-up sheet at your office.
Ask your friends who you have sponsored in the past, to return the favour and sponsor you now.
Bring donation envelopes to club and group meetings to ask for donations and team members!
Always say THANK YOU. Send thank you e-mails, letters and phone calls.
Ask ten people for $10 and just like that you have made $100!!
Start a letter writing campaign online and through the mail. Include your goal, why you are walking, where the money will go, how to donate online & how they can help you get more donations! Make it as easy as possible for someone to donate by providing pre-stamped return envelopes in your letter!
Bring your donation envelope everywhere you go! The gas station, car wash, local fair, School event or more. You never know who might donate unless you ask!
