Fundraising Tips

  1. Update your personal page: Connect people to your unique reasons for saving the Bay. Updating your personal page will make you 5 times more likely to hit your goal.
  2. Make a self-donation: Share your commitment! The first donation is very important and those that make a self-donation are 30% more likely to hit their fundraising goal.
  3. ASK: If you don't ask, no one can say yes! Grow your team or grow your donations. Think about friends, family, local gym, youth sports teams, and others.
  4. Share progress: Every piece of trashed removed from our communities and every dollar raised is something to celebrate. Share your success on social media and link your Personal Page. Don't forget to use the #CleanTheBayDay hashtag in your posts.
  5. Share the mission: We all need clean water! CBF is the largest independent conservation organization dedicated solely to saving the Bay. Our motto, "Save the Bay," is a regional rallying cry for pollution reduction throughout the Chesapeake's six-state, 64,000-square-mile watershed, which is home to more than 18 million people and 3,000 species of plants and animals.
  6. Share impact: Each donation can go a long way! Our combined power can make a huge impact. $1 could plant 100 oysters in the Bay. Imagine what your support can do!
  7. Workplace giving: Does your employer match donations made by their employees? Encourage your supporters to see what is available to them.
