Ideas to celebrate your fundraisers on July 5th...
On Fundraiser Appreciation Day Australia, we have the opportunity to transform gratitude into action and celebrate our fundraisers in ways that are meaningful to you and your organisation.
Below is a selection of ideas and assets (which we will continue to add to in the lead up to July 5th) that can help you both capture, lift up, and build momentum towards this important day of recognition for our profession.
EVENTS
Hosting a meaningful in-house event is a wonderful way to honour your dedicated fundraisers and celebrate their hard work over the past financial year. Provide a special opportunity to recognise their worth, achievements, and to share success stories to show our fundraisers how much we value their important contributions!
INVEST IN YOUR TALENT
Celebrate Fundraiser Appreciation Day by increasing or reaffirming your commitment to investing in your fundraisers' professional development. This is a powerful way to honour their dedication and more meaningful than buying some doughnuts. By offering training and skill-building opportunities, we empower them to grow and excel in their roles and underscores the value you place on their contributions to your organisation.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Celebrating your fundraisers through social media is a great way to recognise their hard work, inspire others, and engage with your community. Remember to use relevant hashtags (including #FundraiserAppreciationDayAU, tag fundraisers or teams in your posts, and encourage them to share the content with their networks to maximise reach and engagement.
AWARDS
Establish some internal awards and then have your presentation ceremony (or virtual event) on July 5th to celebrate their accomplishments. Create personalised award certificates or trophies for the recipients and prepare speeches or presentations to highlight their contributions and achievements.
Reach out to let us know what you are up to and we will showcase your events and efforts on our social media channels!
