When it comes to fundraising, everyone has their own approach. The following are a few resources our most successful fundraisers have found helpful over the years.
3 steps to success:
- Decide how you’ll fundraise.
- Register to fundraise your way.
- Raise critical funds to help patients and their families.
Get social
Social media can be a fun and fast way to fundraise. You can spread the word fast and in a highly visible way. Remember, people are busy. Be sure to give your social network a few gentle reminders throughout your fundraising campaign. Download custom graphics to help you raise your first $150 (enough to add one potential life-saving donor to the NMDP Registry℠).
Facebook fundraising
With Facebook fundraisers, raising money for your favorite nonprofit is quick and easy. Just share your fundraiser with your Facebook friends, get donations—and reach your goal. Join our Fundraise for NMDP Facebook group and share your success stories, photos, inspiration and helpful tips.
