Pin Up Fundraising Campaign
Every dollar makes a difference! A pin up campaign is a simple program that makes it easy for schools, businesses and community groups to raise funds for Be The Match. You have likely seen similar campaigns in your community. They consist of small cards, also known as “pin ups,” which individuals can purchase for a minimum $1 donation. The individual signs their card (maybe adds a message of hope) and then it is proudly displayed in a highly visible location. As more people participate, the display makes an impactful statement. We’ve seen “Walls of Hope” displayed at schools, businesses and in local hospitals following pin-up campaigns!
Order a Pin Up Kit today! A kit includes a tooklkit and pin up packs (they come in packs of 100 in English or Spanish).
