Can I use a different fundraising platform or a sponsor form instead of what you've suggested?

Sure! If you'd prefer to use another platform or good old fashioned sponsor forms, that's absolutely fine. You can visit the Game Over MND challenge's digital fundraising pack for tips, download a sponsor form here or set up a JustGiving page.

Can the money I raise go towards a Tribute Fund or Fightback Fund?

add remove

Yes, if you'd like the money you raise to be recorded in a loved ones tribute or fightback fund that's not a problem. Email fundraising@mndassociation.org with your details, the name of the Fund and a link to your fundraising page and the team will organise that for you.

I haven't received my challenge t-shirt and stickers yet.

How much money do I have to raise?

There is no minimum sponsorship target to take part in the challenge. Every penny counts. The more money you can raise, the more support we can provide for people living with MND today. Find out more about how the money you raise makes a difference.

How could I get more people to donate to my challenge?

add remove

We'll be sharing lots of tips and advice along the way, so make sure to keep a lookout. There are also resources available on our Fundraising Zone to help you raise more awareness and sponsorship for your challenge. Our biggest top tip is to keep friends and family updated with your challenge progress by regularly updating your fundraising page.

Where does my sponsorship money go?

add remove

All of the money donated on your MND Association fundraising page, Facebook fundraiser or JustGiving will come straight to the MND Association which means you don't have to worry about transferring any money or handling any cash. Once we receive the funds we turn it into care and support for families affected by MND and fund vital research to better understand MND, develop treatments and one day find a cure.
