2. Fundraising Tips! 1.Make sure your fundraising page is compelling and explains your motivation. Set yourself a goal and make people aware of it! 2.Add pictures to your page so people can see how hard you are training! 3.Time your donation request as people are more likely to be generous with their sponsorship after payday. 4.Don’t forget to ask for Gift Aid as it means more money goes to your charity. 5.Ask close friends and family to donate first as other people may then match their generosity. 6.Tell people what your fundraising target is and what their contribution will help achieve for your charity (see example costs below) 7.Add some perspective around a suggested donation e.g. £10 might mean missing a takeaway dinner. 8.Interact on social media; keep sharing your Virgin Money Giving page. Did you know that 45% of traffic comes from mobile devices and 30% of donations are given using a mobile device? 9.Keep reminding people to sponsor you! On average, it takes 2-3 emails to get 1 donation. 10.Set yourself small weekly fundraising targets rather than thinking about a daunting total target. 11.Collect donations before your event – as soon as the money is received, we pass it on to your charity so they benefit straightaway. 12.Get friends and family to spread the word about your fundraising too – they’ll be keen to help you get more sponsors. 13.Mention your fundraising event in your answerphone messages, email signatures, notice boards, anywhere you can!
