Fundraising Tips & Incentives

With more than 34 million people affected by lung disease in the US, every dollar raised to support research, programs and advocacy efforts is needed and appreciated. Raising money can seem intimidating, but once you get started, you'll be surprised by how easy it is. You never know who will surprise you with a donation, which is why you want to let everyone know you are participating in Run the 'Rocks! The easiest way to raise funds is to customize your personal webpage and share it over email, Facebook and other social channels. Get started in your Participant Center now!

Fundraisers are not only rewarded with the good feeling of making a substantial difference for those living with lung disease and all of us advocating for clean air,  you score some pretty cool Run the Rocks gear! 2024 incentive items are coming soon.
