While network fundraising is similar to peer-to-peer fundraising in that you’re recruiting people to fundraise on your behalf, typically a network fundraiser won’t have a large-scale event like a 5K, fun run, or any type of “A-Thon” fundraiser. You can double or even triple your fundraising efforts with network fundraising.

No matter what you’re fundraising for, hosting a dance-a-thon can help you raise lots of money while also giving your supporters the opportunity to get moving and have fun. It’s an engaging format, and for those who don’t enjoy running 5Ks, a dance-a-thon is a great alternative to get your fundraisers moving in a fun way.
