Fundraising Made Easy

"I have no idea how to fundraise." It's EASY! Here are some ideas to reach your goal.

  • PERSONALIZE IT: Tell people why participating is important to you. Avoid general statements like 'It's a good cause.' AVOLky.org for info. Always include your fundraising page link.

  • DONATE TO YOURSELF: Then challenge friends to match it.

  • SOCIAL MEDIA: Create messages & posts. Include your fundraising page link.

  • AT WORK: Donation jar or snacks, asking folks to donate.

  • AT HOME: Yard sale, change jar, lemonade stand, or cook dinner and ask guests to donate.

WHO CAN ATTEND AIDS WALK?
Everyone.

WHAT IF I DON'T REACH MY FUNDRAISING GOAL?
No problem. While we hope everyone gives it their best effort to raise these vital, life-saving funds, we want you there no matter what.

CAN I BRING MY DOG?
Well behaved dogs are welcome! Please be prepared to clean up after them as needed and keep your fur-babies on a leash.
