On Friday, December 2nd, join us as we celebrate 50 days until Red Shoe Run! We want YOU to know YOU can truly make a difference for the families who call the Ronald McDonald House “home.”
We have deemed December 2nd, “$50 Day” — Okay, we admit, it’s not an official holiday, but we’re working on it. 😉
On this day, challenge yourself and your team members to raise $50 in 24 hours for RMHC Alabama!
Guess what? If each of the current 175+ Red Shoe Run participants takes part in $50 Day, we have the opportunity to raise over $8,700 for Ronald McDonald House Charities of Alabama in one day! How cool is that? That amount can cover almost 92 nights for a family staying at the House. That is over 3 months! THAT IS HUGE!
Would you believe us if we said we haven’t even gotten to the most exciting part yet?? It’s true …
Participate in our $50 Day and you have the chance to be entered into TWO amazing giveaways.
The TOP fundraiser on December 2nd, will win a NEW Amazon Echo.
Don’t know if you can be the TOP fundraiser? Don’t worry, each participant that raises $50 will be entered into a drawing for an Amazon Prime Membership (or a $100 Amazon Gift Card)!
Okay, now you want to know how to be that Top Fundraiser, don’t ya?
Here’s some tips:
- Share your personal fundraising link on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and send it out via email.
- Challenge your friends, family, co-workers and clients to help you reach the top!
- Use the $50 Day image (download here) to spark interest.
- Use our team ambassadors (here) and our family stories (here) to share why you are raising money.
- THANK everyone that donates – tag them on social media, send a hand-written thank you note, let them know they’re appreciated (because they are!).
Get Creative! Of course, tag us on social media and use #RSR17 & #RMHCA!
