Tips and Resources for Fundraising

  • Share Your Story: Create a personal fundraising page and share your journey with epilepsy. Explain why this cause is important to you and how it has impacted your life. People are more likely to donate when they understand the personal connection.
  • Set a Goal: Set a fundraising goal that inspires others to support you. Whether it’s $100 or $1,000, let your potential donors know what you’re aiming for and how their contribution can make a difference.
  • Utilize Social Media: Spread the word about your fundraising efforts on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Share updates, photos, and videos, and encourage your friends and family to share your posts.
  • Organize Fundraising Events: Host a bake sale, garage sale, or virtual event to raise funds. Get creative and involve your community in supporting the cause.
  • Engage Your Network: Reach out to friends, family, colleagues, and neighbors individually, sharing your fundraising page and asking for their support. Personalized messages can be very effective.
  • Corporate Matching: Check if your workplace offers a matching gift program. This can potentially double the impact of every donation you receive.
  • Thank Your Donors: Show gratitude to your donors by sending personalized thank-you messages or organizing a post-event celebration. Let them know their contribution is truly appreciated.
  • Stay Positive and Persistent: Fundraising can be challenging, but stay positive and persistent. Remember that you’re making a meaningful impact and that every dollar counts in the fight against epilepsy!
