Fundraising Ideas

Leverage Your Networks

We’ve created an email template that you can use to share with your networks as well as social media posts below. We would be happy to provide you with more information if you need. Don’t hesitate to reach out for support in your asks!

Matching Gifts

Many companies offer donation matching to their employees. Contact your HR department to see whether they will match any of your Power To Summit fundraising.

Fundraising Challenge Ideas

Get creative with your own skills or the skills of people you know. Can you cook or bake? Do you have car washing skills? Are you handy at DIY? Are you creative or artistic? Showcase your talents for donations to your Power To Summit challenge.

Encourage donations by including personal challenges when people donate:

  • The person who donates the most to you/your team can select your race costume
  • If you/your team raise $5,000 you will share a TikTok dance video, etc.
Host a Bake Sale

Everybody seems to be making bread these days. Use those perfected skills to have a bake sale. Post your bake sale in the Facebook Group page to encourage other bake offs!

Run a Bottle Drive

What if you collected cans/bottles from all your friends’ recycling and created your own quick bottle drive? The Bottle Depot loves to support your fundraising – check out your local  Bottle Drive Tips Page and scroll to the bottom to view some specific tips on fundraising. Power To Be has accounts set up at the following depots – 4261 Glanford Ave / 655 Queens Ave / 3961 Quadra St.
