D10 Fundraising: tips and templates
More than 30 Decathletes joined the 10K Club last year — each raised more than $10,000. Together they cleared $500,000. Here is how they did it.
10K Club tips
02
Early and often
Announce that you are in today. On average it takes six emails for a donor to give. A reminder never hurt.
03
Mention Memorial Sloan Kettering
The world's oldest and largest private cancer institution. That history gives people confidence their gift will land.
04
Top of the house
Firms rally behind their athletes. Ask The D10 family to take a meeting — email info@thed10.com.
05
Cast a wide net
The financial-services community rallies around this event, and it does not stop there. Contact your whole network.
06
Use the tools at your disposal
Every competitor gets a fundraising profile and an email template for clients, colleagues, friends, and family.
07
Ask The D10 staff
Staff will help with emails, social posts, goal setting, and phone or email support so you can hit your number.
