tips for asking others to support the hike for hospice
-
Think about why you are supporting the Hospice in your community. Share this with others and be ready to listen to how the Hospice will make your donors’ lives easier.
-
Ask for a specific dollar amount rather than letting the donor decide.
-
Make it easy for people to give you money. Offer to pick up cheques from people.
-
Whether someone tells you yes or no, you have the ability to accomplish something with a “Thank you.” You can either acknowledge their generosity and support, or you can leave the door open for the future.
-
Show your commitment! Start by making your own donation of $25, $50 or more.
-
Set up your personal fundraising page and unlock the fundraising tools you need to get the word out today.
-
Send emails from your personal Hike fundraising page to ask for support and give your friends a safe and secure way to make a donation.
-
Ask your company/sports group/church/favourite business to support you.
-
Use social media sites like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to get the word out - #HikeforHospicePerth
People want to support a good cause—they just need to be asked!
