    Fundraising Made Easy

    While no minimum fund-raising goal is required we encourage you to fund-raise. Your fund-raising for Stair Climb MS provides help for today and hope for tomorrow through education, support, advocacy, and research funded by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Central & Eastern Virginia Chapter.

    Whether you are participating as part of a corporate team, a friends and family team, or as an individual, these quick tips are sure to help you maximize your fundraising efforts.  

    

    STEP #1: SET YOUR FUNDRAISING GOAL

    Keep in mind that you will want an attainable goal and there is always an opportunity to adjust your goal throughout the Stair Climb MS season. Once you’ve settled on your goal, make sure log into your account and update it.

    STEP #2: SET UP YOUR STAIR CLIMB MS PERSONAL PAGE

    Did you know if you set up and actively update your personal page you can raise on average two to three times more?

    Having trouble using your account? View our how-to guide (pdf) or watch a video tutorial.

    STEP #3: KNOW YOUR NETWORKS

    Make a list of every person you know — the obvious (friends and family) and the not-so obvious (neighbors, acquaintances, business associates, team members, alumni associates, etc.). You have just created your donor list. Need extra help? Use the Know Your Networks worksheet (pdf) included in the fundraising toolkit above.

    STEP #4: ASK AWAY!

    You have created your personal page, set your goal, and made your "ask list"; next comes what many people think is the hardest part of fundraising, the ASK. Tell everyone what you are doing — the excitement is contagious and your story will inspire others. Articulate why you are taking on Stair Climb MS. Your commitment will be the reason they choose to give you a donation.
