If you're on the brink of reaching your fundraising goal for the Youth on Course 100 Hole Hike, here’s a virtual high five.
If you still have a ways to go though, don’t worry–you got this with these last-minute tips to help you reach your fundraising goal.
1. Let everyone know you're shooting for the stars and remind them why. A social media post, an email, a text...you can easily share your Hiker Page link and call for donations. Remind your network that every dollar counts towards making an impact on Youth on Course members.
2. Share the impact of reaching your goal. Every $100 you raise directly supports 15 affordable rounds of golf for kids. Show your donors the math and how their contribution to your Hike engages local youth to get outside, exercise and connect with their community through golf.
3. Consider making another personal donation to your own Hike and asking people to match it. Giving people a specific number to donate as a match might encourage those on the fence to support your efforts.
4. Prioritize stewardship on the front end Whether you're hitting up someone who has already donated or reaching out to new friends, it's important to thank everyone who has given and make them feel genuinely appreciated by you individually, and by Youth on Course as an organization.
Every dollar counts and we can't thank you enough for taking on this extra challenge that provides youth with access to life-changing opportunities through golf. Check out where you stand on the leaderboard and enjoy your 100 Hole Hike!
