IDEAS FOR RAISING INDIVIDUAL & TEAM CONTRIBUTIONSAll you have to do is ASK ~ your family, friends and co-workers will be happy to support your efforts.
* Sponsor yourself * Ask family members * Ask co-workers ** Ask neighbors * Ask friends * Ask your boss *
Form letter (This is by far the most effective fundraising tool)
For those of you don’t like to ask for donations, and are great with words,write a letter asking for donation in support of your participation (make sure you send a copy to UCP-CM).
Enclose a request and self-addressed envelope with your Holiday greeting cards.
Newsletters, e-mail and web pages
With technology today this is probably the easiest idea yet. E-mail your friends, family, co-workers and let them know what you’re doing and ask for their support. GiveMN.org allows teams and individuals to set up personal pledge pages. An information sheet is included in your packet on how to set one up. It’s easy!
Payroll
Ask your payroll department if there is a way to print a message on check stubs to inform fellow co-workers of your team/individuals participation in the SIM Bike Race. Or ask if you can include a slip of paper in each check to notify co-workers of your participation in the SIM Bike Race. Provide a place where donations can be dropped off.
Fund Matching
Check and see if your company has a matching contribution program. When asking for donations fromco-workers ask them to complete the matching forms available, you could double your contributions.
Consult Human Resource Dept.
This group of people know the ins and outs and the do’s and don’ts for your office. Ask them for ideas on how to promote your participation in the SIM and how you can get donations from employees.
Community Business
Everyone has insurance, a doctor, optometrist, dentist, favorite restaurant, local bank etc., or have you had some work done on your house? Have you just built your house? Have you had your furnace or chimney cleaned? Do you contract with a business for snow removal? Etc. These businesses in the community may make a contribution for you or your team. If you chose this as one of your options please call UCP-CM at 253-0765, a letter and verification might be required for the business.
WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY:
In consideration of your acceptance of this entry, I, intending to be bound, hereby, for myself, my heirs, executors and adminis-trators and on behalf of undersigned, waive and release United Cerebral Palsy of Central Minnesota, Inc., its officers, directors, staff and volunteers, Whitney Recreational Center, its officers, directors, staff and volunteers, and all additional sponsors and their representatives, successors, and assigns from any and all rights and claims for damages I may have arising out of any inju-ries and illnesses suffered by me in the event.
