Welcome to Walk on the Wild Side an exciting WALK-A-THON FUNDRAISING event like no other!

Your Journey, Your Impact πŸ’ͺ

Join us for a Walk-a-thon that gets you outside, connecting with nature and loved ones to show your support for environmental action in your city.

Here’s the steps πŸ‘£:

βœ‹ Sign up and set a goal!

  1. Customize your profile on CanadaHelps peer-to-peer fundraising site LINK βœ…

  2. Set a goal for yourself – a goal of how much you want to raise! Anything can be accomplished if you set your mind to it πŸ˜‰

βœ… Share your profile / recruit donors

  1. Review this guide, which includes tips for sharing your message

  2. Tell your friends and family why you are raising money to support EcoSpark

βœ… Go on your walk (the easy part!)

Step 1) There are three ways you can participate or β€œwalk”

    1. Join a scheduled group walk – make new friends and meet someone from the EcoSpark team.

    2. Host your own walk – a low pressure way to get involved, where you can walk with family and/or friends on your time. Share a picture and tag @ecospark_env or #ecospark and #walkonthewildside, we’d love to see and repost your support if you like!

    3. Simply set up a page – you don’t have to go on a walk to show your support! Participate by pledging a donation goal and creating a page to collect support for EcoSpark.

Step 2) Get involved in community (citizen) science! Bring your phone or camera along and you can record your findings to iNaturalist 

☺️ Celebrate your milestones and share your progress

  1. Update your friends/family about your progress on your goal. They want to help and support you in any way they can, and are excited to be a part of your journey. 

βœ… Wrap up the fundraiser

  1. For donations of $100 or more the donor will receive an EcoSpark Walk on the Wild Side T-shirtl, and a tax receipt. 

  2. Use the Thank You template to send thank you messages to your support when they donate. 

  3. Send us your feedback or tell your friends and family about some of the things you discovered on your Walk on the Wild Side.
