First off: you are lit! Thank you for supporting Texas youth build power! Thank you for sharing your passion with your friends, family, coworkers, and more. More youth can rise against oppression because of you.
What is peer-to-peer fundraising? Peer-to-peer fundraising (P2P) is when supporters of a nonprofit organization or cause fundraise on behalf of that nonprofit by reaching out to their network of family, friends, coworkers, etc. (their peers). Often, the P2P fundraisers launch their efforts simultaneously with one of the nonprofit’s fundraising campaigns.
Will you help us fundraise for our Youth Steering Committee? This campaign’s goal will be to fundraise $20,000 to fund stipends for youth decision-makers. $20,000 = 1,000 hours of paid work for a youth worker!
Why do we peer-to-peer fundraise? P2P helps us not only raise these funds for our youth but also helps reach more people and raise awareness of Youth Rise Texas’ overall mission. 100% of the money raised will help cover youth stipends and salaries.
Who are the fundraisers? YOU! Our subscribing donors, volunteers, and board members- y’all the best advocates in Texas. Y’all reach out to us with so many incredible ideas about ways to engage with our mission. We want to empower you to talk about YRTX in your community and find creative, fulfilling ways to be a YRTX advocate.
When do we fundraise? Youth Rise Texas’ Steering committee is beginning it’s pilot year at the end of 2023. The first fundraising campaign will run from Thursday October, 19th - Tuesday, November 28, 2023 (Giving Tuesday) You may fundraise anytime; however, we can offer more support during our scheduled campaign periods.
Where do we fundraise? On the internet, in your home, anywhere! All P2P fundraisers are encouraged to set up a team via BetterUnite fundraising page to process their donations. How you make use of this donation page is up to you! Many folks go the modern-classic route of emailing the BetterUnite page and spreading the word via social media.
