Every dollar you raise truly makes a difference. It could be the few hundred dollars that install a new window, or the few thousand that will paint a family's home. What matters is that you invite your community to join you in a mission that makes a deep impact for years to come.
Pro Tip: Try setting what fundrasiers call a "stretch goal": an amount that feels achievable but ambitious, challenging donors to give generously and spread the word.
Setting up your fundraising page is a snap! Just name your fundraiser, personalize it with a photo, and let your community know why you're fundraising for Habitat. Set a fundraising goal and add an end date for some extra motivation!
Pro tip: The best way to launch your fundraiser? Make the first gift! Studies show people are more likely to donate to a fundraiser that is already on the rise.
Who couldn't use some good news? An opportunity to make a concrete difference in the Bay Area's housing crisis? That's good news worth sharing.
Your fundraising page makes it easy to spread the word—through social media, email, a QR code on a flyer, and more! Let your friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, anyone know that you're fundraising for Habitat—and why. We've got resources below to help you share the love.
Pro Tip: Follow Up! We all do it - open a text message and forget to respond. That's why sending reminders and progress updates to your community can help you reach your goal!
Congratulations, you've wrapped up your fundraiser! This is your moment to celebrate all the incredible good that you and your donors have done in our community. Make sure you give your donors a hearty thank-you, and let them know how much they've helped raise for Habitat. Most importantly, let them know that they've had a direct impact by making homeownership achievable and sustainable for people our housing crisis has left behind.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I don't have social media?
No social media, no problem! Sending texts and emails, making phone calls, posting flyers, and setting up a fun event are all ways you can rally your community to donate without the use of social media. You could also ask your community to share on their social media accounts to get the word out far and wide.
I have a question about my fundraiser, who can I contact?
