FUNDRAISING BASICS
Make a list and make your ask.
Be authentic -- use your own voice and your own story when asking friends and family to contribute to your campaign.
Keep it simple -- start by asking a broad group of people via email or on social media and then narrow down to individuals you think would support your campaign.
Share your personal fundraising link in as many places as you can.
