Who to contact
Getting your story in the press could help you get more donations. Contact your local newspaper by searching for their details online.


What to say
Journalists read hundreds of stories a week so make sure yours stands out. Write an attention-grabbing subject line, and give details in your email about your fundraising and why you're doing it.
Make your page stand out
Photos and videos are a great to tell your story without words. The press will be more likely to pick up your story if you send them strong images.

More tips

Keep it short and sweet.
