Fundraising in 2021
Although this year may look a little different, one thing remains the same: our mission to find life improving therapies and a cure for A-T. Our grassroots fundraisers are the driving force that contributes to the funds needed for A-T research and we hope that you consider joining us this year in fundraising! If you’re not comfortable with hosting an event in person, here are a few suggestions for how you can still make a difference! Please take a look below and learn how you can help the A-T Children’s Project in our mission to cure A-T!
Please email us at fundraising@atcp.org if you’re interested in fundraising!
Host an email campaign
Especially in this virtual world, sending an email to donors, friends and family is a quick and simple way to solicit donations. Reach out to those in your circle and let them know how A-T research continues and how they can donate. The A-TCP will create a customized donation page (click here for an example) for you to share with your donors. They’ll be able to easily donate using this link from your email!

Host a letter Writing Campaign
In addition to sending an email, you can also mail a letter to your donors. The letter could include updates on how your family is doing during these unprecedented times in addition to a soft ask for donations. We could include both the link from your donation page in this letter as well as a return mailing envelope for donations to be mailed to.

Host a virtual event
If you’re looking to do something a little bit more, the options to host a virtual event are limitless! Host a virtual zoom party, a virtual raffle/auction, a virtual yoga class or a virtual walk. Email us at fundraising@atcp.org with your ideas and we’ll work with you to set up your virtual event!
