Fundraising Tips

We’ve got simple tips and creative ideas to help you rally friends, family, and your community - making your Walk for Autism fundraising a breeze!

Personalise your Walk for Autism page & Bio.
Add a fun profile picture and update your bio with a heartfelt message. If you have a personal story about why you're participating, share it! Your supporters will feel more connected and inspired by your journey.

Shout it on your socials.
Share your awesome journey on social media! Post fun photos and videos of your challenge. Use our pre-written ready-to-go messages to reach out to family, friends, and colleagues. Don’t forget the power of a friendly chat. Tag @walkforautism and use #walkforautism to spread the word far and wide.

Start strong and lead the way!
Jumpstart your fundraising with a self-donation. Show your dedication and inspire others to join and support you. Once you’ve done this, begin by asking a few close friends to donate. Their early support will help kickstart your campaign and attracts more donors. You'll be amazed at how eager people are to help you smash your goals!

Facebook Fundraising
Want to smash your fundraising goals on Facebook? Keep it fun and personal! Share a heartfelt story, use great photos, and ask friends to spread the word. Thank your donors and keep them updated – people love being part of the journey! The more you share, the more you’ll raise!
