Raising funds is easy once you get started. Follow these simple steps, and you’ll be well on your way to meeting and exceeding your fundraising goal!

1. Make a donation to yourself. It’s a great way to show your supporters that you are committed to the cause.
2. Select your personal fundraising goal.
3. Ask your friends and family to support the cause by registering to hike with you or by making a donation. The more support you have, the easier it will be to reach your goal.

5. Fundraise online by leveraging the tools in the Participant Center, and Facebook to reach your goal. Create a virtual passion fundraising event by developing a fundraising event through your favorite hobby, activity, or passion.
6. Team T-Shirts -- Stand out on event day with team t-shirts. By registering for this event you are allowed to use the event logo per the Participant Logo Use Agreement.
