All fundraising efforts, however large or small, help Australians living with multiple sclerosis to live well and thrive at home, work and in the community.
Organising fundraising activities while you prepare for the Gong Ride is the best way to get your friends and family involved in your fundraising.
Do something that you'll enjoy. Ask your friends for help and most importantly, have fun!
To get started, here are the top fundraising ideas from some of our most experienced MS Gong Ride fundraisers and teams.
TOP FUNDRAISING TIP
CREATE A FACEBOOK FUNDRAISER
You can now create a Facebook Fundraiser directly from your MS Gong Ride Fundraiser Dashboard. On average, participants who do this will raise 15% more than those that don't!
All donations received from the Facebook Fundraiser will also appear on your MS Gong Ride Fundraising page and be added to your fundraising total.
HIT YOUR TARGET IN NO TIME
WITH THESE EASY FUNDRAISING TIPS!
PERSONAL DONATION
Kickstart your fundraising, and show your supporters how serious you are, by making a personal donation to your fundraising page.
SEND AN EMAIL
Did you know that over 50% of donations come from email? Plus, sending individual emails is always more effective than a group email!
SHARE ON SOCIAL MEDIA
Ask your social networks for help to reach your target, by sharing your fundraising page on Facebook, Instagram or LinkedIn.
SHARE AT WORK
Share your personal QR code on your work noticeboard, or share a link to your fundraising page on your work's intranet and newsletter.
Jersey Sponsorship
Reach out to local businesses and see who wants to support your fundraising efforts. In return you can pay it forward and wear their logo with pride.
After Work Drinks
Charge an entry fee for Friday night drinks and tell your colleagues all about why you are taking part in the MS Gong Ride!
Wax Off
In the true nature of cycling, host a wax-off and charge your friends to administer a wax strip to your leg or chest...and let them rip it off!
Decorate Bike
Let friends and family bid to decorate your bike for the Gong ride!
Trivia Night
Everyone loves a quiz night! This could be from the comfort of your living room, with friends online, or down at your local pub!
Silent Auction or Raffle
Get some prizes donated and you can host a silent auction or raffle, online or in person.

Overdue for a haircut? Want to try something new? Charge your friends to pick out your next facial hair style.
