After Giving Tuesday, we have officially kicked off the holiday season! This is a time for joy and family, and of course, giving to those in need. The Giving Season is when our hearts and minds are most with those in need, and when we work together to make a difference in their lives. That work includes fundraising to support Komen’s investments in cutting-edge research that will lead to new, more effective treatments, working in communities across the country to ensure all people can access the care they need, and mobilizing passionate supporters to make certain the voice of the breast cancer community is heard by policymakers.
These efforts can be as big or as small you like, and we are here to help make things as easy as possible. There are simple ways to spread the 3-Day love throughout the next few weeks, starting TODAY! Let’s get started…
Sign a friend up for the 3-Day TODAY
What better way to celebrate the Giving Season than with some giving of your own? Today (December 5) is the last day of our current registration discount, so you can register yourself or your future teammates for the 3-Day for only $35 – and you don’t even need a code! It will only take a few minutes and is budget-friendly for everyone on your list.
Whether you want to bring a new friend into our 3-Day Pink Bubble, or help someone you love return to our family, you know that the 3-Day will bring nothing but smiles and joy from the moment you register to those final steps across the finish line.
Remind everyone of the 3-Day’s impact
Your efforts this year, and in years past, have made a real difference in the fight against breast cancer. From your teammates to your donors and your supporters, everyone should know that the accomplishments they helped you achieve this year have made an impact.
You can check out our Facebook page to see how much the 3-Day in your city raised, and then let everyone know how that money was used! The 3-Day also has infographics and videos that explain how donations are aiding in the fight against breast cancer.
These infographics can be printed out and included in your fundraising letter, or you can link right to them if you prefer to send out fundraising emails. You can also link to any of the videos from our YouTube channel!
These explanations and inspirational messages will help thank your family and friends for your support, encourage your donors to continue to give, and provide inspiration throughout the holiday season.
Gather your family close
And that doesn’t just mean your biological family! The 3-Day family extends beyond that. It extends beyond your teammates and even your donors. Every one of us has to work together to expand our networks and spread the impact of the 3-Day. Celebrate the family you have, and the family you have built, by drawing them close and celebrating the end of another amazing year.
Have an all-pink holiday bash to thank everyone who has made your 3-Day journey possible this year! Think holiday cookies, your favorite 3-Day music, and maybe even a sing along with some of our 3-Day carols ? You’ll spread that holiday spirit in no time!
