TRC FOUNDATION INC

Start Fundraising

TRC Foundation works to improve the lives of people with disabilities and other challenges in Chautauqua County, NY. Through this web site, you can create your own fund-raising web page and raise money online to help us make a difference in the lives of people with disabilities. You can create a web page in honor of a family member, a friend, a co-worker, or someone with a disability who you support in your daily work. You also can donate directly to TRC Foundation through this web site.

To create your personal fund-raising web page, simply click the "Start Fundraising" button. When setting up your page, you'll notice there is space to share your personal story about why you're raising money.  You also can include a photo, and it's easy to link your fund-raising web page to your Facebook and Twitter accounts. Once you're set up, you can e-mail your fund-raising web page to your family members and friends.

WHY RAISE MONEY?

TRC Foundation awards more than $70,000 in grants each year to projects that improve the lives of individuals with disabilities and other challenges. But more money always is needed in order to enable people with disabilities to enjoy a full life.

HOW TO RAISE MONEY

People can raise money for any reason, but most people create fund-raising pages to support one of our annual special events: the Laurel Run 8K Run & 5K Walk; the Step Up For Autism Walk; the Street JAM basketball festival; and the TRC Golf Classic.  But people also can raise money for their own event.

ANYONE CAN CREATE HIS OR HER OWN FUND-RAISING WEB PAGE AND GENERATE FUNDS FOR TRC FOUNDATION! You're only limited by your creativity! If you're involved in a special event, or if you need motivation for a fitness or weight-loss program, you can create a fund-raising page and start raising money for TRC Foundation. You'll be helping people with disabilities while also helping yourself. If you have questions or want more information, contact Steve Waterson at (716) 661-4735 or steve.waterson@resourcecenter.org.
