Does Crowdfunding Work?
At IDRF, we believe in the power of community. Every contribution — no matter how big or small — brings us one step closer to a brighter future.
Every act of giving matters, and crowdfunding is an excellent way to support a cause close to your heart. Whether it’s reaching out online, or through your own communities — like families, friends, workplaces, classrooms — there are countless ways for you and your community to get involved in IDRF’s causes. All the funds you raise will go to the region or program you select, or where they are needed most.
How to Start Your Fundraiser
Starting a crowdfunding campaign is easy! Here’s how:
1. Set it Up
Create an account, select IDRF as your charity, choose your cause, set a goal, and share a bit about why you’re fundraising.
2. Spread the Word
Share it with your community, add the link to your bio, and encourage loved ones to contribute!
3. See Your Impact
Track fundraising and see how close you are to your goal, day by day!
fundraising through social media
If you live in Canada or the United States, Facebook or Instagram fundraisers are a quick, easy way to create an impact.
You may either contribute to an existing fundraiser on our profile, and add it to your bio, or create one yourself. You may share it in a post or a story, and encourage your followers to contribute.

All you have to do is set up a fundraiser, choose a cause close to you, and share it with your guests before your event.
