Let the Fundraising Begin!

With training about to start for the MoonWalk London, now’s the time to get your fundraising page match ready!

A well-prepared page makes all the difference to how much sponsorship you might get! Here are some quick and easy tips to get your page ready: 

• Upload a photo – Show your supporters who they’re cheering for!
• Write your story – Share why you're taking on this challenge, what you’re doing and how much it means to you.
• Decide how much you want to raise, the minimum is £200 but many people find they raise much more than that – you can change the target should you want to.
• Personalise the challenges – Make it unique to you! Tick off & update them letting everyone see your achievements as you go along!

Valentine’s Day Bake Sale

Channel the love in the air by hosting a cake sale featuring heart-shaped cookies, cupcakes, and other sweet treats. Set up a table at your workplace, community centre, or local market, and donate the proceeds to your fundraising page.

Share the Love

• Roses for a Cause - Partner with a local florist or purchase flowers in bulk to sell single roses or small bouquets. Add a tag with your fundraising story to each flower, encouraging people to "share the love" by donating.
• Make a Heartfelt Pledge - Ask supporters to make a pledge in February to "love their health." This could mean walking every day, eating healthier, or taking up a new fitness habit. Encourage them to donate the money they save or ask others to sponsor their commitment.
• Love Your Steps Challenge - Set a daily step goal for February and share your progress with your supporters. Encourage them to cheer you on with donations to help you keep moving!
• Raffle of Love - Gather prizes like gift cards, hampers, or Valentine’s-themed goodies and host an online or in-person raffle. Promote it through social media and your fundraising page to maximise donations.
