We’re less than 20k from the $100,000 fundraising mark and we want to hit it before National Pink Flamingo Day!
Whether you have an official Pledge the Pink fundraising page or not, you can easily raise money on Facebook by using their oh-so-simple fundraising tool Foundation.
If you’re not familiar with how to start a Facebook fundraiser, just follow the steps below and we’ll have you raking in the cash in three minutes. (Click here for a handy video tutorial!)
Anyone that raises $500 between June 1 and June 23 will automatically win a free pair of leggings from our store and one of our new t-shirts… you choose which ones and we’ll have it wrapped up and waiting for you at the event!
This offer is extended to all registrants, sponsors, and volunteers.
You can do it thru Facebook and/or you can create your own fundraising page on our system and collect money however you want (we have lots of great ideas here).
