TEAM WHS FUNDRAISING QUESTIONS

Do I have to collect donations to participate in Team WHS? 

By joining Team WHS, you commit to raising at least $500.00 by the 2020 Milwaukee Lakefront Marathon.  Whether you raise those dollars by making your own personal donation, or collecting donations from friends, family, co-workers, and the community, though, is entirely up to you!  Each participant of Team WHS will recieve their very own fundraising page, email samples, and fundraising tips to help promote your involvement and raise money to care for animals in need!  

 

Can I raise money offline (checks and cash) and online? 

Absolutely!  Every participant can choose their preferred fundraising format.  You can drop off or send your cash and check donations to WHS by the Wednesday before the race or make them online anytime!  Just be sure to record names, addresses and amount for these donations on our pledge form so that we can track them properly and include them on your fundraising web page.  You can find the pledge form here.
