Fundraising Tools - CIBC Run for the Cure

Fundraising Tools

We’re here to help you increase your fundraising! Check out our tools and resources, so you can maximize your success and reach your fundraising goal.

Asking for donations

Personalized emails and phone calls are great ways to continue online fundraising. When approaching people for online donations, consider asking family and friends and even neighbours or colleagues. With thousands of Canadians affected by breast cancer, people would appreciate the opportunity to get involved and offer whatever they can to help ensure no one faces breast cancer alone.

Here’s how you can encourage people to support your fundraising:
