  • SIMPLE IDEAS WITH HUGE RESULTS:

    1. Initiate a Letter Writing Campaign: The personal appeal letter is the most efficient way to raise money. Write letters to your family, friends and co-workers to tell them what you are doing and to ask for their support and/or participation. One participant raised more than $10,000 this way!  Here are two documents to help with your campaign: 
      Sample Letter

    2. Fundraise Online: Now you can recruit donors through our online fundraising tools.

Friends and family can donate to your webpage via a secure credit card transaction. It's quick and easy for both you and your donors.
