FAQ
A virtual fundraiser is an online fundraising campaign that allows you to support Feed the Children’s mission from anywhere. You can create a personal fundraising page and invite friends, family, and colleagues to give in support of your goal. Some supporters choose to pair their fundraiser with a personal challenge or special event and share updates on social media to inspire others to get involved. Every dollar raised helps provide children and families with food, essentials, and resources to thrive.
