Meet Toolkit
Powerlifting and weightlifting meets are a great way to build community, showcase strength, and raise funds for Lift4Life. This meet toolkit is meant to be a guide and inspiration to help you host a successful meet that adds an element of fundraising to support the programs we do at Lift4Life!
Add some fundraising!
Here are some ideas that could help you add an element of fundraising to your weight lifting meet:
Donate a portion of meet fees or entry fees - Adding just a few dollars to the fees associated with your event can really add up. Typically, people participating in events or attending events don’t mind paying just a few dollars extra, especially if they know it’s going to a good cause
Source prizes - Try requesting some in-kind donations from your favourite brands like supplement companies or clothing companies that might be interested in donating some goods
Try a raffle, 50/50 or silent auction - These are a great way to raise significant funds while also allowing the people who are attending your event to win some awesome prizes
Sell meet-specific apparel with the Life4Life logo - Our Lift4Life team can work with you to create some great apparel that will let the participants of your meet remember the event for a long time
Food stand - If you are able to source food for your event, you can sell it at a low cost with proceeds going to Lift4Life (we have a great nutrition program that would be a perfect fit!)
Get loud on social!
We have some great content that will help you raise awareness about our work and how you are planning to support our programs through your meet. Check you can use our logos below.
