The Hustle Up the Hancock is the largest fundraising event for Respiratory Health Association. The event raises more than $1.1 million to promote healthy lungs and fight lung disease.

Fundraising is easier than it sounds - all you have to do is ask. If you don't ask for support, people don't know you're looking for support. To make it easy, you can do your fundraising online by using our website - every climber gets their own webpage to personalize to assist in their fundraising efforts.

Here are some other great resources to help with your efforts:

• How to make online and offline donations
• Using mobile apps
• Using fundraising resources: tips, pledge sheets, social media and more
• Matching gifts
• Incentive prizes

For the purpose of calculating incentive prizes, the deadline to turn in pledges is Friday, March 15, 2013.
