Step up and start walking!
Step 1: Goal
Choose a specific quantifiable goal. Choose a distance that you will to raise a set amount of money per mile. Or choose a day streak and raise funds for the number of consecutive days that you will walk.
Step 2: Route
Choose a route to walk, you can use apps such as Footpath to map out the exact distance or time that you’ve decided to commit. This helps to ensure that you can reach your goal!
Step 3: Fundraising Page
Create your own fundraising page to share with your supporters. It’s yours to personalize with photos, messages and updates. This is also where all of your supporters can pledge towards your goal!
Step 4: Track
Don’t forget to set an activity tracker when you go on your walk! This way it is easy to keep track of every mile or minute that you walk. It’s also a great motivator to post on your fundraising page! Your supporters will be able to follow along with every step you take showing your amazing dedication to families in need of shelter around the world.
Step 5: Spread the Word
Go one step further, share your goal and challenge 5 of your friends using our social media challenge template here: Graphic or Animated. Don’t forget to tag us @ShelterBoxUSA!
