Fundraising Tips to help you smash your target
How to raise £125
The key to fundraising success is rallying your network of friends, family and workmates to understand why you care about autism. By using these four easy steps, you should easily raise £125.
Step 1
Show how much you care. By making the first £10 donation to your page you will be half way towards receiving your T shirt! When your page hits £20 we will send you your T shirt! Making a small donation to your own page shows others how much you care about autism.
Step 2
Share your page on social media. Not just once, share it at least twice a week and spread the word. It only takes six people to sponsor you £10 each and you're half way there! Also you can add a Facebook frame to your profile pic - see below for more help.
Step 3
Email and WhatsApp your family, friends and work colleagues the link to your page, do it on payday when everyone is feeling flush!
You can also contact your local newspaper to tell your Walk for Autism story. See below for a press release template.
Step 4
Ask your employer to match the funds you have raised. Lots of workplaces offer match funding. It's worth finding out if your workplace does! See more information to help with this below.
