Why Are Teams so Important ?
Did you know teams raise over 65% of all the money collected for Steppin’ Up to End Violence?
Each year, our event has grown, thanks in large part to TEAMS! As individuals come and experience the fun and meaning of Steppin’ Up, they are inspired to come back and bring some friends! New teams form, returning teams strengthen, and participation increases.
Also, this is a community event, and we really encourage awareness raising and violence prevention along with walking in Steppin’ Up.
Forms and Materials
Click the button below to find the forms you need, or call TPN to pick up the Steppin’ Up Team Leader Packet. The packet has all the forms you and your teammates need: brochures, pledge forms, creative fundraising ideas, etc.
Teams Can be Any Size!
It is the heart and the spirit and not the size that makes our teams stand out. Invite a few friends to join you; ask your co-workers to join an office team; encourage your child’s school to create a team of students, parents and teachers; ask your faith community if their mission or outreach committee can support this event; or have a combined family and friends team. We want to make the process of leading a team as easy and fun as we can.
We are here to help!
How Does a Team Raise Money?
In addition to collecting pledges from family, friends and co-workers, you can utilize our free online fundraising tool, JustGiving. It’s a fast and easy way to let others know you are helping Turning Points Network. Follow the easy steps to create your own page and then email that link to your contacts near and far; it’s a great tool to share on social media. Participants report a huge jump in fundraising when they use this tool!
If you would prefer to raise money offline, make sure to document who gave you each amount for your own records. You may send money raised to TPN at any time before the event, but there will also be specific collection times in the week leading up to the event, so check back for more details.
