Top fundraising tips for Teams:

1. Know your reason why your team is participating in and fundraising for Strength for Life. To honor or support a friend or loved one. To help cancer patients and survivors while doing something you love.   To conquer a personal/team mission.  Whatever the reasons, you and your team will be more successful fundraisers when you are able to convey these reasons to your potential donors.
2. ASK! Your team should never miss an opportunity to ask for a donation, whether at work, school, a meeting or any social gathering. Let everyone know about your team and your fundraising efforts. 
3. Turn any gathering into a fundraising party. Be creative. Hold movie parties, barbecues, bake sales, benefit nights at restaurants and bars, car washes, cocktail parties, game nights.   Make it FUN-raising!
4. Send fundraising and recruitment emails. By far this is the fastest way to gather donations from potential donors and recruit new team members. 
5. Facebook and Social Networking. Set up an Event page on Facebook.  Through this page you can advertise your teams activities and all team members can invite their friends to donate.  If you have a Twitter account you can Tweet you teams activities and link to your active site for donations.
6. Corporate Matching. Double your donations through matching gifts. Remind your donors about matching gifts. Many companies will match charitable donations given by their employees. It's an easy way to double your impact.
