Hello *|firstName|*,

Congrats! You've already raised enough to get an official Walk to END EPILEPSY T-shirt the day of the event. Way to go!

We know fundraising can be intimidating, but don’t worry! We’ve broken down a comprehensive day-by-day plan below to help you reach your goal of *|goalAmount|*. You can adjust the monetary amounts to whatever works the best for you!

First thing’s first: be sure to personalize your fundraising page with a picture (fundraising pages with a photo of the participant are 3X more likely to receive a donation) and a statement about why YOU Walk to END EPILEPSY, who you walk for, or what epilepsy means to you. You can do so here: *|participantEditUrl|*

How to Reach Your Fundraising Goals in One Week:

Day 1: Sponsor yourself for whatever amount you feel comfortable giving. Donors want to support you in a cause that they see you already support yourself. Your gift will set the tone for your donors!

Day 2: Ask two friends for $50. $50 fills one first aid kit for our medical team at Camp Achieve. Your best friends will be happy to know the significance of their support.

Day 3: Ask three family members to donate $75. The people who love you most will support you in anything you do – especially when it’s a cause that is personal to you. Start with them and boost your fundraising total early.

Day 4: Ask four co-workers to contribute a $10 donation. Or, ask your office to host a $5-$10 donation based Casual Friday. Don't forget to ask your employer/your donors if their companies have a matching gifts program to potentially double the gift!

Day 5: Ask five people in your social network to sponsor you for $20. Post and tag friends on Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and Twitter asking for a $26 donation in support of the 1 in 26 people who will be diagnosed with epilepsy in their lifetime. If social media isn't your thing, try texting or emailing your appeal!

Be sure to send your network your page link to maximize these efforts: *|participantUrl|*
