Donate a minimum of $1,500 over a calendar year. There are multiple ways to reach this goal, such as:

• Create a Text-to-Give Campaign and ask your customers to donate.

• Set up a Peer-to-Peer Fundraising Page so your friends and family can help raise donations.

• Schedule team building events and competitions with employees such as chili cook-offs, bake sales, and prize raffles.

• Host a party or happy hour for colleagues, clients, and friends, and ask for a charitable donation at the door.

• Challenge other businesses to compete in various games or activities such as volleyball, bowling, billiards, or softball and raise money through team events. Create a Peer-to-Peer page to keep track of funds.
