Fundraising 101: Tips and Ideas

Five easy steps to get you started:

  1. BE BOLD – aim high when you set your goal. Don’t forget about our Top Fundraiser club made up of all individuals who raise $1,000 or more. All Top Fundraisers receive great perks and prizes. Update your goal in your Participant Center so it is proudly displayed on your fundraising website, and share your goal when asking your friends and family for support. When you surpass your goal, be sure to update your page with a new one!
  2. BE THE FIRST – start your fundraising off with a bang by making a donation toward your fundraising goal. Others will be more inclined to give if they see you have made a donation yourself.
  3. BE PERSONAL – share your story with your donors. Tell everyone you know that you are participating in Climb to the Top, and tell them why.
  4. BE SIMPLE – go online and use the set of easy to use online fundraising tools right at your fingertips called your Participant Center! You can set up a personal web page, send out emails, and track your progress. Go to www.climbMSnyc.org to log in to your Participant Center and get started now!
  5. BE CREATIVE – we have all kinds of innovative fundraising ideas and tips to help get you started. Some ideas are listed on this page and you can find many more by visiting 101 Fundraising Ideas. If you would ever like to meet with a Society staff member to discuss your fundraising plan and gain more resources, please contact Carrie at carrie.seekircher@nmss.org.
