Hi Everyone-
I am looking for ideas on how I should approach this fundraiser. I am a volunteer with our local Organ Donation Awareness Coalition and I would like to do a fundraiser strictly online Does anyone have a letter I can send to the volunteers of the organization that they in turn can email to their family and friends. I have looked in the files section and do not see anything I could use. I would appreciate any thoughts and suggestions.
Thanks

Total hijack, as I don't have any suggestions . . . but, are you going to be at the US Transplant Games in Madison? My sister is a liver transplant recipient. We went to Pittsburgh, she went to Thailand (skipped Australia), and now we're planning another big family trip to Madison.

Hi there! As a Pampered Chef consultant, I have worked with many organizations to help them raise funds through online fundraisers. I would be happy to share some ideas and tips with you. One suggestion I have is to create a personalized email template that volunteers can easily send to their family and friends. You can include information about your cause, the fundraiser, and how people can support by making a purchase through your Pampered Chef link. Another idea is to host a virtual party where a portion of the sales goes towards your fundraiser. This way, you can reach a larger audience and also provide a fun shopping experience for your supporters. Let me know if you need any further assistance or have any questions. Best of luck with your fundraiser!
