Fundraising Information / Assistance
In addition to the usual ways to fundraise, we have added a new exciting way to target more of your family, friends, co-workers, etc. This year you have the opportunity to create your own fundraising web page that allows you to send out emails to potential donors and allows them to donate on your behalf with a simple click of a button. It is easy to do and for your convenience, we have created a tutorial which gives you a step by step instruction on getting started.
There are a lot of different ways to do
fundraising but letter writing is very effective. Most letter writers report
that about 20% of the people you contact will donate. So, the more you
write, the more successful you will be. To help we have three different
stock letters you can download.
The Sample
Fundraising Letter comes from the St Jude office and needs only the name of the person you are writing too, and
your name in the “Anglers Name” below the dashed line. The
donor fills in the information and sends it directly to St Jude.
A way to make it easier for your contacts to donate is to add
a stamped, addressed envelope. A hundred letters will cost you $40 but it may
increase your fundraising success.
The address for the St Jude Office is:
St. Jude Bass Classic
Suite 310
