Sponsorship tips

Katie's top tips for successful sponsorship

You can set up a free web page to help you get your sponsored event going at www.justgiving.com/quakers.

Keep it simple!
Choose an activity that you are going to be able to organise, train for, and enjoy!

Publicise your activity early
Put up posters, talk to people about what you are doing, create a page on Justgiving.com (available soon)

Encourage your network to help
Tell people about your effort and ask them to help you - family, friends, neighbours, work colleagues, work contacts, groups you belong to, other Quaker meetings...

Keep people posted
Let your supporters know how you are doing. Keep a blog, write and post updates on social networking sites, send out short emails - keep in touch with everybody supporting you

Say "Thank you"
Show your appreciation of people's support for you, and people will want to help you next time.

Remember - your Fundraising Team is here to help, and we look forward to hearing from you. Good luck!
