OUR USP INCENTIVISING THE FUNDRAISING
As with all our challenges, fundraising with the GB Athletes Crowdfunder (www.crowdfunder.co.uk/gbcharitydays ) also gives participants £1 off the entry fee for every £2 raised (we would refund them directly) . Have a look at the full Athlete Experiences brochure and see if you have events like Golf Days where donated / subsidised places can be leveraged. If so please let me know if you would be happy for your supporters to benefit from this type of fundraising or steer them towards non rewarding donation platforms.
