MESSAGING FAQs
When fundraising and asking people to donate their hard, earned money, it is important that you can answer any questions they may have.
If you do not know the answer, off the top of your head, to a question they are asking, DO NOT make it up. It is okay to say, ‘Good question. Let me consult my notes’ or ‘I will get in touch with my Facilitator and ask.’
SAMPLE PITCH
lease find below a sample pitch you can customize for your own fundraising purposes.
Remember, when pitching it is always better to be brief, and add more details depending on the potential supporter's interest and follow-up questions.
💡Pro Tip: Practice by recording yourself and listening to where you are strong and where you struggle.
