Write Your Story: Determine Your Theme.
All successful campaigns have a story. Express your purpose for launching a campaign and your commitment to making this one a success.
You Can Do Anything to Raise Money.
You can literally do anything to raise money. Here are a few examples:
- As people to donate to your campaign instead of gifts for your upcoming wedding.
- Run/bike a race and ask for people to donate to your campaign for each mile you go.
- Host an art show, collect change or soda cans in your community, or get creative.
- Instead of receiving gifts for your birthday, ask family and friends to donate to your campaign.
Communicate Your Campaign.
- Prior to launching your campaign, make sure you refine your message and be sure to personalize it with photos.
- Donate to your own campaign to show your commitment and to inspire others to do the same.
- Reach out to 10-20 of your close contacts who you know are supportive of your goals and ask for their support. The more personal outreach you do, the more successful your campaign will be.
Dear friend,
Imagine if something as simple as a pencil could make your day. Many of us are fortunate to be in that position, but for many students it's a reality. Together, we can change that.
Help me raise money for students and teachers by donating to my Pack Your Back: Support a School campaign. Pack Your Back is working with schools across the state to get resources in that hands of students and teachers to ensure success in the classroom.

All children need is access to a quality education to ensure a successful future. Help me ensure that every student and teacher has the proper resources throughout this school year.
Every donation can help make a difference and help me achieve my goal. Thank you for your continued support!
