When others see your own contribution, they will be more willing to support our efforts. Be excited - enthusiasm is contagious. 2. Ask anyone and everyone! If you don't ask they won't give! 3. Ask for a specific amount. Set a goal. Tell everyone what your average pledge has been and ask them to beat it! 4. Collect pledges up front. Collecting as you go will cut down on the amount of work and time you invest following up. 5. Send e-mail - and ask them to forward it to others who may want to participate.
