JOIN THE 'STUDENT MOVEMENT'
Are you a student that wants to support the Got Your Back Movement on your campus? Here's some ways to help!

Start a club or a "movement" at your school. We need self-starters who are passionate dreamers to get this movement going.

Here are some ideas on how to raise support.

Bake sales:
baking parties are awesome but, baking parties then selling your treats to raise money for kids school uniforms makes it so much sweeter (pun intended).

Organize a walk:
ask people to donate per lap or per mile.

Benefit Concerts:
everyone seems to knows a musician or a band... so why not ask them to play a concert where all proceeds support Got Your Back.

Yard Sale:
everyone needs to clean their closets once in a while. Empty out your stuff and sell it (in groups makes it more fun) and all the proceeds go to Got Your Back.

Change for Change:
Have your friends and classmates collect change (or just random donations) in water bottles or milk jugs. A little adds up to a lot.

Sell our shirts:
Create an order form and pre sell shirts and send us the order. We will ship them to you. Easy as pie.

Not-so-silent auctions:
Local businesses are usually willing to give something away, gift certificates, services, art, adventures....have an event to raise support for GYB by auctioning these things off. Keep it as high or low as you want but remember, what your supporting is speaking volumes to families around the world.

Do you want someone from Got Your Back to come speak at your school? Or do you have more questions than answers? Email Rachel Ryan for more information! rachelryan@gybmovement.org

DONATE YOUR BIRTHDAY
This year, instead of asking for gifts for yourself, ask your family and friends to donate to GYB (on your behalf) or have them buy a shirt for themselves. Tell them that this year, for your birthday, instead of buying you gifts, you'd like for them to buy themselves one. And guess what?! When they buy a shirt, it will provide a school uniform to a kid in need.

Set a goal for yourself. If you're turning 25 try to put 25 kids in school, if you're turning 50, aim for 50 kids! You'll be amazed just how easy it is to make a HUGE difference.

All donations to Got Your Back are tax deductible.
