SPONSORSHIPS
Do you like to run in marathons? Swim? Bike? Hike? Climb walls? Walk? Read books? You can organize your family and friends around any activity to raise funds for your favorite cause. Next time you plan to challenge yourself to running a 5K or swimming a mile a day for three months, turn it into a fundraiser to save lives. Through Crowdrise, you can set up a personal fundraising page and raise funds for IMA.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Choose an activity that will allow you to solicit pledges/donations from family, friends, neighbors and coworkers. (Example: Your kids could hold their own book-a-thon and get pledges for each book read. The donations to IMA will help save the lives of babies and children in Uganda!)
2. Set up a personal fundraising page and choose International Midwife Assitance as your charity of choice.
3. Advertise your cause through Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, email, snail mail, in person, via telephone or any other way you can imagine. (BONUS: Tell us about your efforts, and we'll be happy to advertise your campaign on our website, Facebook, Twitter and through our electronic newsletter!)
4. Set a goal for the amount to be raised and a deadline.
It's that simple!!
