Q: What type of fundraiser should I host?
A: It doesn’t matter whether you are an elite athlete or someone who takes a more casual approach; it just matters that you care about curing cancer! Train for and complete the endurance event of your choice, while raising money to support high-impact cancer research through the V Foundation.
Q: Do I need to register my fundraiser with the V Foundation?
A: No, but we strongly recommend you do. Registering will grant you access to a customizable webpage and make it easy to share your fundraiser on social media. This page will serve as a central hub of information and will allow donors to give directly to your fundraiser.
Q: Do I have to pay to host a fundraiser?
A: No! Registering your fundraiser with us comes at no cost.
Q: Can I have access to the V Foundation logo for my fundraiser?
A: Yes. Fundraisers are permitted to use the benefiting logos provided in the Team V Toolkit.
Q: Can a V Foundation representative come to my fundraiser?
A: We are fortunate to have committed people like yourself who host fundraisers each year to benefit the V Foundation. While we wish we could be at all fundraisers, unfortunately, it is not feasible. We are available by phone and email to help you host a successful fundraiser.
Q: How can I get my employer to match my donation?
A: Requesting a matching gift is a powerful way to increase the impact of your giving! Learn how.
Q: I received a check or money order. Where do I mail it?
