Congratulations on signing up for International Women’s Day Fun Run presented by Queensland X-Ray! We can’t wait to see you cross the finish line while you support women with breast cancer. Now let’s get fundraising!
With your support we're aiming to raise more than $1.75M to support women with breast cancer, by investing in personalised, practical support services, equipment and potentially life-saving breast cancer research at Mater.
Fundraising is fun and getting started is as easy as one-two-three-four!
Step 1: Make your fundraising page shine!
As part of your registration we created a fundraising page just for you—now you need to personalise it! Log in to your fundraising hub to update your profile picture and add a personal message to let people know why you’ve decided to raise funds for women with breast cancer.
Forgotten your password? No worries! Reset your password.
Step 2: Share your fundraising page with friends.
Harness the power of social media by posting the link to your shiny new fundraising page on Facebook. Don’t forget to add a message to let your friends and family know what you’re doing and why you're doing it!
Here’s a post to get you started:
I’ve signed up to the International Women’s Day Fun Run! We’re raising funds to support women with breast cancer, providing hope for women now and into the future by investing in potentially life-saving cancer research. Will you help me?
You can also download some cool social media posts to share from our fundraising resources.
Note: a message might pop up on Facebook suggesting you set up a fundraising page with them, but it’s best not to do this as your donations won't be tracked on your Fun Run page.
Step 3: Get your message into people’s inbox.
You should never underestimate the power of a fantastic email. We'll let you in on a secret; the key to writing a powerful email is to be yourself!
We’ve created an email template to get you started. You can find it on your personal fundraising page. To make it really work for you, make sure you add your own personal touches.
Step 4: Use our fundraising resources
Download our great fundraising resources, including posters, social media posts and email signatures.
Don’t forget, we’re here to help, simply get in touch with us here and we can help you create a fundraising plan for success!
If you’re ready to make a positive impact and help more women with breast cancer and their families focus on the moments that matter most, log in to your fundraising hub and let’s get started!
All done... What's next?
Great work! Now all that's left to do is fundraise and train up for the fun run!
