Hello!
I am about 7/8 months into working with two very small charities and fundraising is a relatively new area for both. One of the avenues we are trying this year is taking places in challenge events. These include runs, a walk and skydives.
It's proving a bit of a challenge to fill our spots at the moment. We have tried promoting through social media and paid social too. I have also contacted local running clubs to see if they would be interested. Both charities also have COTY partnerships who we have shared the information with, but there has not been much interest yet.
We have also shared the information with beneficiaries who are old enough but there are not many that would have the time to commit to training for a challenge event.
Advice on ways to promote the places would be really helpful! Whether you're in the same boat as me or have had lots of experience, your thoughts are very much welcome.
Thank you!
