Effective Donor Outreach: Using a combination of email, text, and social media is the most successful way to engage donors and maximize contributions for your fundraiser.
Incentives and Competitions Drive Participation: Friendly competitions between groups or individuals, along with fun prizes like gift cards or challenges, keep students motivated and involved in fundraising efforts.
Best Practices for Success: Active participation is key—students should upload personal pitch videos and invite at least 15 family or friends to their fundraising page for the best chance of hitting their goal.
