Regardless of the sport played, teams were able to fundraise for the cause. The teams competed against each other in the digital space to raise the most for the cause in an exciting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/hosting-virtual-peer-to-peer-event\/\">peer-to-peer event<\/a>. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the teams raised funds, they were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/peer-to-peer-gamification-raises-money\/\">rewarded<\/a> for reaching certain milestones:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>At $1,000 raised, teams were sent fifty standard shoelaces or 35 thinner laces&nbsp;<\/li><li>At $2,500, teams received wristbands or additional laces&nbsp;<\/li><li>At $5,000, Go4TheGoal Foundation sent sweatbands or headbands to the teams &nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the team\u2019s top fundraiser received a t-shirt to commemorate their fundraising success.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Go4theGoal created a fundraising leaderboard to show the top ten group fundraising teams on the main page. Teams were able to set their own fundraising goals and fundraise to meet that goal. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Go4TheGoal-Leaderboard.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"635\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Go4TheGoal-Leaderboard.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29738\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Go4TheGoal-Leaderboard.png 635w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Go4TheGoal-Leaderboard-300x227.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 635px) 100vw, 635px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to their teamwork, the athletic teams raised more than $257,000 for Go4TheGoal&#8217;s mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you can do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Go4TheGoal Foundation relied on athletic teams to raise funds for their cause. Your nonprofit can act similarly. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/peer-to-peer-fundraising\/\">Recruit groups to fundraise<\/a> on your nonprofit\u2019s behalf.

They could even be local companies or departments within a single company!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the case of Go4TheGoal Foundation, athletes were sought out and asked to fundraise on behalf of their nonprofit. You could recruit sports teams, bands, and civic organizations to raise funds for your nonprofit as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to host your own peer-to-peer fundraising, but aren&#8217;t sure where to start? <a href=\"https:\/\/go.qgiv.com\/demo-request-p2p\">Request a demo now<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons aligncenter is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-qgiv-green-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#ffffff\">Request a Demo!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who they are Go4TheGoal Foundation\u2019s unwavering mission is to improve the lives of children battling cancer by providing financial support, developing and implementing unique hospital programs, funding innovative research, and granting personal wishes.
