5 Tips for Fundraising for the Calgary Marathon Charity Challenge
1) Get your coworkers, friends, family, and network to run/walk with you!
The more, the merrier! Ask someone in your circle to join you on race day and help us raise money for YouQuest! This will promote visibility for our organization as well as give you a running buddy!
2) Share your fundraising efforts on social media!
Make sure to follow YouQuest on all social media platforms @youquestcalgary and share our posts about the Calgary Marathon! We will be sharing how to sign up and donate, so make sure your network is in the loop!
3) Ask for direct donations to support your goal!
Set a goal for the amount of money you want to raise for YouQuest at the Marathon – no number is too small or too big! Let the people around you know your goal and ask them to help by directly sponsoring your race!
4) Make it a competition at your workplace!
Use this event as a team building exercise! See how many members of your work team will run/walk or donate to the event! Create a shared goal for your coworkers and get excited about supporting YouQuest!
5) Kickstart a chain of donations!
Ask 5 friends to donate a small amount and challenge them to match each other! This show of support can create huge impact for a small organization like ours and spread the word about your race and our goals!
