Last minute fundraising ideas


 
For those who have yet to reach their fundraising goal, we have a few ideas on how to generate those last minute donations.

1.       Ask everyone you know and ask them to ask others - The only way to meet your fundraising goal is to ASK, ASK, ASK! Ask clients, colleagues, suppliers, anyone and everyone. Make a list of places where you visit; don’t forget about doctors, dry cleaners, mechanics and your favorite restaurants!

2.       Host your own fundraising event - Special events can be a fun, easy and a quick way to generate funds in a single day! Host a BBQ, bake sale, garage sale or even a car wash, whatever appeals to you. You’ll end up having a great time while supporting a great cause too!

3.       Increase your social networking activity - Social networks, such as Facebook and Twitter, are a great way to spread the word about your fundraising efforts and passion for the MS cause. Post a link to your personal fundraising page on your timeline or feed, asking your friends and family to donate to your event. Get your efforts noticed! You can also take advantage of our social media tools to spice up your email signature or Facebook timeline.

However you decide to raise funds, the best tip we can give is to create a network of supporters. Raising money can be a breeze with the help of your family and friends!
