Fundraising Ideas & Inspiration

Arthritis warriors and their loved ones are continually coming up with new ways to raise awareness and support for the arthritis community. Check out these featured fundraising ideas. 

Half-Time Dance-Off

Choose a home game or a school wide activity/event like a pep rally or dance. Involve other school groups, such as all athletic teams, cheerleaders, school groups like student council, parents, and faculty to show their school spirit and support for those living with arthritis.

24 Hour Sing-a-thon

Ask family and friends to pledge for a set amount of time.
For example, friends might pledge for every minute danced, for every song the dancer boogies to, or donate for accepting the challenge. 

Benefit Concert

Jam with granny, rock the roller rink, organize a karaoke night,
or designate proceeds from a concert or recital. 

Fundraising Ideas

DIY fundraising allows you bring any idea to life your way - anytime, anywhere. 
Whatever you chose, chose something you enjoy doing, ask for help and have fun along the way! 
Dance Party Challenge
Challenge your family and friends to bust a move and share their moves on social media! Set a suggested donation amount for everyone who accepts the challenge and recommend a donation amount for those who politely decline! 
Dance-Off 
Organize a competition between two dancers or groups who must progressively dance better than their opponent. Whatever your preferred style of dancing, whatever your level of experience, a bit of imagination and teamwork is all that is required. Collect donations as votes, ask for a registration fee to enter, or post your dance moves in form of a video on your fundraising page, those with the most views and donations by x date win a tbd prize!
School Spirit
