Launch of the 2023 Final Leg Fundraiser

 


The 2023 Final Leg Fundraiser is ready to go

This is an announcement that should have been made some time ago, but like many aspects of the build-up to the 2023 LETR Final Leg, it has not been a straight-forward process.

But - we got there!  Finally!  At Last!

The concept of Final Leg Team members conducting fundraising in conjunction with a Final Leg event started back in 2011 in Athens, when team members assisted in raising funds to subsidize the travel costs of the ten Special Olympics athletes who joined the team.  Fundraising continued in 2013 in Korea, 2017 in Austria and 2019 in Abu Dhabi where the team raised almost USD$400,000.

This year, we have decided on a fundraising approach that is simple and easy to manage. You will not be called upon to commit to daring acts of bravery - no need to leap from the top of a tall building, or to dive into a pool of shark infested waters this time round.

The focus this year is for you to seek support from your community and network of friends and colleagues for the 2023 Law Enforcement Torch Run Final Leg in Berlin.

Having said that, your participation in the fundraiser in 100% voluntary.

We've pulled together an Information Package that provides you with assistance on how to sign up, how to maximise social media, to learn about the Incentive Program and the Revenue Sharing model.  Click on the button below to open the package.


We've also put all these documents, plus the social media images (and a downloadable zip file) as well as a QR Code to take you to the Fundraising Page in the Team Portal on the LETR website.

This is what the QR Code looks like - click on it and it will take you to the Fundraising webpage:



We hope you will take up the challenge and sign up to assist both your local LETR or Special Olympics program and the LETR International Executive Council.

Thanks

Scott

  1. as always, I have a question. If a business or person wants to give a check, how do we handle that? with the link they can only pay with a credit card.

  2. is there a way to see information for who donated? all I see is a name and amount on my page. with our Illinois LETR when people donate you get a notification email and you can send them a thank you. this one does not notify at all and I have no way of reaching back out to people who have donated. some I don't know but since they left their name, I would assume they would like a thank you.
