Roadies & Volunteers

Roadie Fundraising and Incentives

Although Roadies are not required to fundraise, we encourage everyone to give it a try. After all, it is the reason that we are doing this event. Fundraising can be an intimidating venture but with a few tips you will be on your way to reaching your goal. Please review the following suggestions and overview of the fundraising process for Roadies.

Fundamentals

  • Memorize a few key facts about your local beneficiary and some of the work they do.
  • Familiarize yourself with the current state of the AIDS pandemic, particularly in your community.
  • Be prepared. Always carry your AIDS/LifeCycle donation forms, pledge letters, and pre-addressed envelopes.
  • You never know. A donation could come from anyone, anywhere, anytime.
  • Talk, talk, talk. Tell everyone you know that you are raising funds for AIDS/LifeCycle, a 545-mile bicycle ride designed to aid programs for people with HIV and AIDS.
