Sleep Out fundraising toolkit

Once you've registered, follow these simple steps; together we can help more vulnerable men and women find shelter, help and hope this winter. 

Setting up your fundraising page

When you set up a page on the Glass Door website, all donations come directly into our bank account and Gift Aid is added automatically. 

If you haven't yet, get started by pressing the button below. 

Set up a fundraising page

top tips: 

• Unless you've already created a page for another event or set up a repeat donation, don't press "log-in". Go ahead and fill in your details and you'll be sent a follow-up email asking you to create a password.
• Do personalise your page. Use the "suggested text" to make it easy.
• Shorten the URL to something easy to remember. 

Spread the word

People will WANT to support you. So while we do not have any minimum fundraising ask, please do be ambitious. And remember it's not really about YOU. You are reaching out on behalf of men and women with nowhere to sleep and in desperate need of help. 

First: Consider telling your closest friends and family first what you're doing and why. A "soft launch" allows you to gain some campaign momentum before asking more widely so you’ll feel confident reaching out to your broader networks. Because people are more likely to give when you are closer to your goal, getting a few key fundraisers started before your official launch can help you hit the ground running.

How: Contact your most dedicated supporters and ask them to make a donation on your fundraising page. You could even encourage them to reach out to their friends and family to start making an impact on your behalf.
