Five steps to successful fundraising
- Register for the Firefighter Stairclimb.
- Kick-start your fundraising by making a personal donation.
- Customize your fundraising page. Share your story and photos to help people understand why you’re climbing.
- Connect your fundraising page to Facebook Fundraisers to make giving easy and reach more supporters. (Your Facebook Fundraiser must be connected through your participant Fundraising Tools page.)
- Share your story with family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers, and invite them to support your fundraising.
Customize your fundraising page
Your fundraising page is your opportunity to share why you’re participating in the Firefighter Stairclimb. Adding your story and photos helps make your fundraising more personal and gives donors another reason to support your climb.
Facebook Fundraisers
Connecting your fundraising page to Facebook Fundraisers is one of the easiest ways to reach your fundraising goal. On average, participants who connect a Facebook Fundraiser raise five times more than those who don’t.
Important: To receive credit for donations, your Facebook Fundraiser must be connected through your participant page in Fundraising Tools.
Employer matching gifts
Many employers match charitable donations made by their employees, helping your fundraising go even further.
Ask your donors to check whether their employer offers a matching gift program.
