Sample text

Sample text that you can use as inspiration, copy/paste, or add to in order to create a message

What has worked best in the past is to have three things

  1. A personal message about why you are raising money for NCSF
  2. A little about the NCSF
  3. Remind people that no donation is too small.

Some examples of a personal message

  • We are raising money for the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom to support the kink community in fighting discrimination.
  • We are fundraising for the NCSF to support the rights of everyone to live and love the way they choose.
  • We are supporting NCSF to raise awareness about Consent.
  • NCSF supports those in the Lifestyle community, so help us support them!
  • Let’s support NCSF so they can continue to provide all of their work free of charge!
