Once your page is set up, it’s time to share with the world! Be sure to share your customized Growing Clover fundraising page through social media, email and text. The more people who see your page, the better!

>> Social Media:

>> Email:

Make a list of different “groups” of people you can email such as volunteers, alumni, current youth, and community supporters. Create a schedule for an email campaign by writing your own message or using the templates provided on our resources page. Email each group a minimum of three times.

>> Text:

Text the link to potential supporters, volunteers, parents and teens in your program. Not only can they easily purchase a Growing Clover membership from their phone, they can also forward it to others.

Stay engaged

You’ve done with work to share your link with others, but we’re not quite done yet. Be sure to build continued excitement throughout the campaign by keeping people informed and sharing your journey along the way. By inviting people to be a part of your story, you are inspiring others to donate. :)

*Ask people to share your posts and emails. Even if someone can’t support you financially, they can still help you by sharing your message. Most people will take the time to share your post if you ask them.

*Post often and at varied times, using different stories and photos. Here are a few examples you can use.

>>When you receive a large amount

>>When five people supported you in one hour

>>When you are halfway to meeting your goal

Say Thank You

Your supporters will receive a 12-month Growing Clover savings membership, but it never hurts to thank them personally, too. Tag them in a post, write a handwritten thank you note, or give them a call or text to say thanks.
