PRESENTING SPONSOR

 

Ask your co-workers. Collect change. Sell crafts.
Go Casual for a Cause. Host a party.

Send an email. Write a letter.

There are so many ways you can raise $100 (or more)!
Here are five suggestions to get you started:

1.

Host a fundraising party and ask attendees to pledge their support. In addition to charging an entrance fee, ask the establishment where you are holding the event to donate 10% of their sales from the night.

2.

In your office lunch or break room, leave a stack of donation forms, a sign with a picture of yourself and a note about why you are participating in the Memory Walk.

3.

Use your Participant Center to send e-mails to friends and family asking for donations. Reach out to your social networks by updating your Facebook status with a Memory Walk message.

4.

Donate to yourself! What do you spend on your weekly coffee or magazine habit? Give up a personal treat and donate that money to the cause.

5.

Tap into your talents. Can you make crafts? Mow lawns? Babysit? Offer your services in exchange for a Memory Walk donation.

*Most Memory Walk events ask for a fundraising minimum of $100 per participant to receive a T-shirt. Contact your local chapter to confirm the
T-shirt minimum for the Walk in which you are participating.
