JOIN US FOR A FUND-A-THON CELEBRATION! REGISTRATION MANDATORY DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS AND EVENT CAPACITY. ALL REGISTRANTS WILL BE ASKED TO SIGN IN.
The Fund-A-Thon is CAF’s largest, most vital peer-to-peer fundraiser of the year, and we are excited to build power and bust abortion stigma as we strive for our biggest Fund-A-Thon yet! This year's Fund-A-Thon celebration event will be held at Haymarket House on Saturday, May 18th from 12:30-3PM CST. This event will feature food, music, community-building, and more as we shout out the amazing work of our FAT '24 funders, donors, staff, volunteers, and allies to advance reproductive justice in Chicago and beyond! This event will be mixed indoor/outdoors, and we are cognizant of the fact that we are still living in a pandemic. More robust COVID-19 precautions below. These will be sent to all registrants.
WHAT IS FUND-A-THON?
Participants will receive a more robust FAQ breakdown, but the Fund-A-Thon is an opportunity to talk about abortion and advocate for CAF in your community. It is the best way for CAF to reach new people, and is an opportunity to move money to abortion funding! You can fundraise as an individual, or, for some real fundraising magic, you can join forces with other passionate repro justice champions and raise money as a team. Whether you fundraise with a squad, go solo, or make a donation to a page (or more than one page!), your participation is vital to ensure that we can continue to fund 100% of the people we reach on our helpline especially as our caller numbers grow and access to abortion care continues to be threatened across the nation.
This year we are reaching higher than ever together we will raise $300K from now until our culminating event! That means we are also hoping to recruit more fundraisers than ever before, so if you’ve never been on a team before, consider looping in some friends who support CAF to fundraise alongside you. Register yourself and your teammates HERE, and be sure to save the date for the Fund-A-Thon culminating event Saturday, May 18th!
ACCESSIBILITY INFORMATION AND COVID GUIDELINES
We recognize the safety guidelines espoused by the CDC are ever-shifting and hold that these do not center the most vulnerable among us. Therefore we are outlining our own COVID-19 guidelines (as well as providing other accessibility information!) and ask that you read through them carefully as you prepare to participate in our Fund-A-Thon Culminating Event:
Virtual:
In Person:
You must register for this event to attend in-person, and provide a working email address. Event tickets will be capped at 200, and we will have a registration sign-in table. We will have a ‘people count’ on event day, and if the space is looking too crowded, we will wait for folks to filter out before allowing more people in. This is for everyone’s safety.
