Get sponsors
Start asking for sponsorship as early as possible.
Ask everyone you know to sponsor you: friends, club members, colleagues, clients, customers, other stores or departments and suppliers.
Cash and cheques
- Asking face-to-face is very successful
- We’ll provide you with an official book of receipts to give to sponsors who give you cash or cheque
- We’ll also give you a bank deposit slip so you can take your fundraising to the bank.
- Ask your business to consider dollar-matching the amount raised by staff
- It’s best to ask people to give you their money straight away, as it’s harder to ask for the money afterwards.
- If you need to keep track of pledges ask for a pledge form by calling 1800 500 088 or download one here.
- Keep a record of who has each receipt book so that it’s easier to get them back after the event. You can download a ‘receipt book tracking sheet’ here
- Call 1800 500 088 if you need more receipts or extra bank deposit slips
It’s even easier online
- Send emails from your Fundraising Page – sign in and click Get Sponsors.
- The email contains a link directly to your page, so people can sponsor you with the credit card – they get an email receipt straight away – easy!
- Sponsors can also search for you or your team from the home page of this website – search now
