Seven Easy Steps for Launching a Fundraising Campaign for The Clearity Foundation
- Think about the impact that you would like to have with your fundraising effort and set your goal for donations using the “It All Adds Up” example below. With a $2,500 donation, Clearity can pay the costs for personalized diagnostic information for a woman who cannot afford it.
- Make a list of people who would like to support you in this cause and the best way to contact them (including email and Facebook). Consider friends, family, coworkers, neighbors and businesses that you support. Patients may also want to ask doctors, nurses and members of patient support groups to contribute to helping other patients with ovarian cancer.
- Gather the information that you will need to start your own online fundraising page! Write a brief description of why raising money for Clearity is important to you and find a picture that can be uploaded. Your fundraising page can be personalized with photos and video to increase your fundraising success.
