Four Rounds to a Winning Fundraiser

πŸ₯Š The Game Plan

Most fighters know you don’t typically expect to win a bout in one punch. You win by staying sharp through every round. Fundraising works the same way. Success comes from following a clear plan, staying consistent, and finishing strong.

Here is a simple four round game plan any athlete or club can follow to launch and run a winning FightCause campaign.

Round 1: Tell Your Story

Supporters don’t just give to boxing. They give to you. Share who you are, what you are fighting for, and why this campaign matters.

  • Keep it short (3–4 sentences).

  • Mention your upcoming tournament, camp, or season goal.

  • End with why their support makes a difference.

πŸ‘‰ Example: β€œI am training for [Tournament] and need help covering travel and lodging. Every contribution fuels my dream and keeps me in the fight.”

Round 2: Add a Strong Cover Photo

A picture speaks louder than words. Your cover photo is the first impression donors will see.

  • Choose a clear action shot or training photo.

  • Or use a FightCause Canva template to add tournament branding.

  • Avoid dark or blurry photos. Bright and focused images win every time.

Round 3: Launch and Share

Your campaign only works when people see it.

  • Share your link on Instagram and Facebook with a short caption.

  • Text it directly to your 10 closest family and friends.

  • Ask your gym or coach to repost. Networks multiply fast.

πŸ’‘ Pro Tip: Personal texts convert better than social posts. Send your link directly to people who know you best.

Round 4: Post Weekly Updates

Donors want to feel part of your journey. Keep them in the loop.

  • Post a short update every week: training progress, tournament prep, or a thank you shoutout.

  • Photos and short videos double engagement.

  • Always thank supporters. Gratitude builds long term backing.

πŸ† Final Bell

That is it, four rounds! Tell your story, add a strong photo, launch and share, and post weekly updates. Follow these steps and your campaign will stay sharp from start to finish.
