Tips
for Volunteers
The
primary goal of the Hunger Cleanup is to raise money for programs
fighting hunger and homelessness. The event also has
the added benefit of providing critically needed community
service work for local agencies and organizations. Through
fundraising, volunteers will not only have an impact
on the day of the Cleanup, but also into the future
as well. Many organizations depend on these kinds of
fundraisers in order to survive.
Below
you will find guidelines for how to easily raise $100
in just one week.
Contact
Family and Friends:
Your friends, family, and people you know will want
to get involved with the Hunger Cleanup because they
care about the issues of hunger and homelessness, and
they'll be even more excited to get involved with a
contribution because you're the person asking them to
make a donation. Our biggest tip is to ask everyone.
Not everyone will be able to make a contribution,
so asking everyone to make a donation will ensure that
you hit your goals!
The
absolute best way for friends, family, professors, co-workers,
etc., to support the Hunger Cleanup is by donating online.
To send out a fundraising email, just log in to your
account on this website. You can send out a personal
email to as many people as you want, encouraging them
to visit the site and donate via credit card. This
secure online donation system will enable you to get
dozens of people involved, no matter how far away they
live. You and your school's Cleanup will get credit
for the donation, and you won't have to worry about
keeping track of checks or cash that people send to
you!
Here
are some examples for how you can easily raise $100
or more!
- Send
out the first email the week that you sign up for
the Hunger Cleanup.
- Send
out the reminder email one week before the Hunger
Cleanup.
- For
people who don't use email, call them or talk to them
in person about giving.
- Since
everyone might not be able to give, ask as many people
as possible.
