Recruiting Walkers is Easy and Fun!
How much money would you be willing to raise if you knew your donations could save a baby’s life? $1,000.00? $2500.00? $5,000.00? The great thing about March for Babies is that your ability to contribute is not limited to your Checkbook. The money you raise is limited only by your willingness to ask others to JOIN your efforts.
EDUCATE YOUR CO-WORKERS ABOUT THE
MARCH OF DIMES
The Support will follow
ADVERTISE MARCH FOR BABIES IN YOUR COMPANY NEWSLETTER, SEND EMAILS, POST POSTERS EVERYWHERE. CREATE A BUZZ
The March of Dimes has materials you can use!
RECRUIT PEOPLE TO HELP YOU RECRUIT WALKERS WHO RAISE MONEY FOR BABIES.
Aim to get 20 percent or more of your employee base involved- If you have 200 employees, recruit 2 other people to help you recruit walkers. If each of you recruit 10 walkers, you will have 30 walkers raising money and representing your company/school on walk day
USE ONLINE FUNDRAISING – IT WORKS!
Send emails to your address book or contacts asking for a donation and then train your co-workers on how easy the system is and ask them to raise money online.
OFFER RECOGNITON & THANKS
Post the list of walkers in your company or on your intranet. Let people know who is registered and who is supporting!
OFFER INCENTIVES
Reward your top fundraiser or the person who registers online and raises the most money the fastest.
ASK
Simply ask everyone you know to take an envelope or to register online! You can not get a yes unless you ask.
