How to Fundraise this Fall

Get ready dancers! Time to start one of the most critical steps towards the 2018 UNC Dance Marathon: Fundraising.

Fundraising can be both fun and time efficient. Veteran Carolina For the Kids members suggest starting with two essentials.

  1. Doing letter push! When notified, you send Carolina For The Kids addresses of family and friends that you would like for CFTK to send a personal letter to on your behalf, asking them to donate to your dancer total.
  2. Going door-to-door, class-to-class to ask friends and neighbors for their support; History says they will be very generous.

Another way to raise money is through special dancer fundraising events. Carolina For The Kids offers dancers opportunities to add to their totals by doing things like ticket-taking at basketball games and timing at swim meets. These activities allow dancers to raise $25 for their total. Free meals are also provided at these events.

Throughout the year, there will be 14 opportunities with basketball and swim meets.

Also, there are two significant dancer fundraisers during the fall semester, FTK Fest and For(mal) The Kids.

FTK Fest is brand new this year! On Friday, Nov. 17 6-9 p.m., dancers, members and supporters can come to The Pit to buy carnival treats, play games, bond with their morale team and watch an Executive Board member get a pie in the face! At the end of the event, all the money raised will be split between the dancers who attended.

For(mal) The Kids is Carolina For The Kid’s popular fall/winter cocktail event. It will be taking place on Dec. 1 in the Union Great Hall from 7-10 p.m.  It’s a great time for dancers and friends to come together, dress up, and enjoy food and dancing.  This event includes a photo booth, D.J., and a Linda's Bar and Grill benefit night. The money you contribute through buying your ticket, and any other guest’s, goes to your dancer total.

So, as you can see, we have plenty of opportunities to kickstart your fundraising!
