Change the font, include pictures, even include a video! Show your donors why you care and how their support will make a difference<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><b> Dare<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Dare yourself! Make a promise to your donors: if you reach a certain target, you\u2019ll\u2026 Shave your head, bake them all biscuits, ride that extra 50km, or anything else you can think of! It\u2019s a great way to incentivise donors and keep those funds coming once you\u2019ve hit your target.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><b><\/b> <b>Social Media<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It\u2019s not real unless it\u2019s on Facebook! Make an initial status when you first create your page and update <i>all<\/i> your friends and family on your progress. Have a count down, put up pictures, and remind everyone that they can help make a difference. Also \u2013 don\u2019t forget about Instagram! Gramming your progress and using #hashtags are a great way of connecting with like-minded people and getting some inspiration and motivation along the way.<\/p>\n<p><b>FOR MORE FUNDRAISING TIPS, <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/support.gofundraise.com\/hc\/en-us\/categories\/200089940-Supporters-Fundraisers-Donor-Registrants-\"><b>CHECK OUT THE GOFUNDRAISE WEBSITE<\/b><\/a><b>.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bowral Classic is offering a refreshing approach to event fundraising.
