World Transplant Games Fundraising

5 World Transplant Games Fundraising Tips

1. Tell your story – and give people something to do if they cannot donate

Lewis, who reached his fundraising goal for the World Transplant Games, explains his full story on his page including why he is fundraising, the event he is participating in to raise money, and most importantly he includes a call to action for those who cannot donate, explaining: “Any donation would be very much appreciated, but if you cannot donate, please could you share my story.”

2. Start with the basics

Before you share your fundraiser more widely, email it around to some close friends so you can get a few donations in. This will give your fundraiser momentum and make it more attractive to donate to.

3. Teams are great

Of our top 20 fundraisers for the last year 85% used our team product, which means they had more than one person helping manage and share their fundraiser.

4. Sharing is caring

For those who have bigger goals, the more you share your fund the better it will work. Don’t be afraid to send it out to friends and family again – people understand that these things need to be promoted. And while asking for help isn’t always easy, people love to give it.

5. Think outside the box

Are there any Facebook groups or Whatsapp groups from your neighbourhood or old school you can share the fund in? What about churches or other religious institutions. Don’t be afraid to lean on your community for help – it’s what they’re there for.
