Fundraising 101


We encourage all runners, walkers and friends to raise funds to support the important work of the Marsha Rivkin Center! Some helpful hints, tools and resources are below.

Online Fundraising is one of the most effective ways to fundraise as an event participant, for a team or for the SummeRun in general. Click here to go to online registration and fundraising instructions (pdf). To fundraise online, you must opt to Participate as a Fundraiser (link to participate as fundraiser) when you register online.

Donation Forms (pdf) to be returned by mail are another great way to get co-workers, neighbors, and friends involved in your fundraising efforts. Make sure you have your name/your team name on the form so gifts will be counted.

Letter writing is another common fundraising method to get friends and family who are further afield to support your fundraising efforts. See our sample fundraising letter (pdf) to get you started.

 

 

To thank you for your dedication, individual fundraisers also qualify for some exciting prizes.
