You Can Do Anything To Raise Funds For MENtorship Sessions

Ready to spice up your life while making a difference? Picture this: hosting a charity bake-off where the sweet smell of success raises dough for mentorship sessions, or organizing a karaoke night where hitting high notes means hitting high funds! Let's not forget the classic lemonade stand—upgrade it with a twist, like unicorn lemonade or avocado toast lemonade (trust us, it's a thing!). Get your community buzzing with excitement by challenging them to wacky fundraisers, from pajama parties to pet costume contests. With creativity as your secret ingredient, you'll be serving up smiles and support in no time! All the funds that you raise will go directly in sponsoring MENtorship sessions.

Why Fundraise?

No boy should grow up without a MENtor. And yet, 4 out of 5 boys do.  But it doesn’t need to be this way. The negative effects caused by the fatherlessness crisis is a problem we know how to solve. And we will if we work together. As a fundraiser, you'll inspire your community to join you in your mission to connect as many boys as possible to MENtors. Along with increasing awareness and empowering those around you to take action, all the funds that you raise will be used to get a boy the MENtor they deserve.

Tell Everyone

Dive into social media with shameless self-promotion and cat memes. Take it to the streets in a chicken suit, waving your donation link. Offer friends snacks for sharing your campaign. Tell everyone—your friends, family, coworkers, and that guy who always double-taps your Insta pics of avocado toast. Get the word out, and watch those donations roll in faster than you can say "chicken dance!"
