Host Your Own Personal Fundraiser
Plan a walk, run, dinner, bake sale, lemonade stand, golf outing, etc…there are many, many possibilities. Think of what you love to do, and create a fundraiser around it! We will help to support you in creating a successful and impactful event.
A note – please be sure to say thanks. Part of fundraising responsibly is expressing gratitude for your donors. LHON Collective sends a message of thanks when we receive donations directly, but it is always good practice to express your own gratitude personally as host. Simple messages on social media, texts, or handwritten notes are easy ways to show your appreciation. Include a bit about why their donation is making a difference for your loved one with LHON. This will be welcome news to your caring friends and family.
