Charity runs are an excellent way to raise funds for a worthy cause. If you are uncomfortable asking people for money, here are some ways to approach them.
- Add your own donation first. Then you can ask your people to match it.
- Make it personal. If the cause is a personal one, let people know.
- Send personalized emails. Take the time to write individual emails to people that you know.
- Use your social network. Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn can all be used to drum up money for your cause.
- Host small intimate fundraising gatherings for local friends, co-workers and relatives. It can be a class or club meeting. Ask for a donation up front.
- Throw a fundraising party. Instead of gifts, people can bring a donation for your run.
