FUNDRAISING AT RUNNING EVENTS
Fundraising experts from all over the world talk all things fundraising in running events. We’ll also have runners who have raised thousands tell us how they did it. It’s not all about raising huge amounts at the one of the really big marathons, there is a world of fundraising at the smaller events, It’s easier than you think to put together a fundraising page and raise a small amount at one of your local events. We have experts on hand who will tell you how to succeed at both. Are there big differences around the world? Absolutely. We’ll have podcasts from all around the world that explain why these differences exists and what we all do to help runners raise funds wherever they are and whatever event they are doing. And remember that you don’t have to go a physical event to fundraise, you can do a virtual event as well, or instead of.
