Top tips for fundraising online
When you register for Marathon in a Month, you will automatically get an online fundraising page. So now you have your page, here’s how to make the most of it!
Add a fundraising target
Setting yourself a target not only focuses your mind more on your goal but it will also encourage your family and friends to support you to help you get there!
Add a picture to your fundraising page
Pages with profile pictures bring in 15% more in donations so get your selfie on!
Tell your story
Use your page to tell your story about why you're taking part or who inspired you to take part. If people know why you are fundraising, they will be more likely to donate towards your cause.
Give updates
Keep your friends and families updated and give them regular updates on social media. It’s a great way to thank those that have donated already and who knows--it could encourage them to donate again!
Monitor your kilometres
Track your progress using Strava or Map My Fitness. This is a great way to keep your supporters up to date and to thank them for their donations, you never know, it may inspire them to donate again! You can find out how here.
