What is a Fundraising Volunteer?

From securing funds for microphones to requesting floats, Fundraising Volunteers ensure we have the financial means to make the Disability Pride Parade happen. These Volunteers allocate funds, speak with registered groups regarding participation fees, correspond with sponsors, and track donations. They help DPNYC get the support we need to create an inclusive and accessible 10th anniversary Parade..

What are the Different Fundraising Roles?

• Fund Allocation Team: Review donations and allocate them to appropriate elements of the Parade.

• Donor Outreach Team: Reach out to and correspond with potential donors requesting financial support or sponsorship. You will also track donations on the Zeffy, PayPal, and Venmo platforms.
