In 2018, more than 50 people went Over The Edge in Lawrence. In 2019, we are on a mission to BREAK RECORDS for our Club kids! Register and raise $1,000 among your friends, family and fans to secure your spot on the rappel ropes. We have fundraising tips and tricks for you along the way.
We recommend your wear well-fitting sneakers or other soft-soled shoes. All long hair should be tied back. To assure you’re comfortable wearing the harness, we suggest wearing well-fitted clothing.
You will be required to leave droppable items like keys and cell phones, or jewelry that can get caught on things, with a staff member on-site.
It may seem like you have all the time in the world but Event Day will be here sooner than you think! The sooner you start the more money you will raise for your non-profit and the sooner you will reach your goal!
Instead of writing post after post on social media, consider switching it up. Make a video detailing what you are doing and why you are doing it! Videos break through clutter and add a personal touch.
To make sure you are reaching out to your potential donors consistently, create and email schedule, with specific dates and diverse content. Keep it interesting!
Get something donated from a local business (gift certificate, swag bag, service, etc.) and offer people who donate to your campaign a chance to win it! Contests are a great way to incentivize potential contributors!
If your friends and colleagues are not able to donate, that’s OK! There is lots they can do to help you reach your goal; ask them to share your personal fundraising page on their social media forums.
Boys & Girls Club of Lawrence partners with several community organizations at the local, state and federal level. It is because of their continued support that the Club experience has grown into the nurturing, productive environment. Please note that partners of $10,000 and above annually are recognized below.
