Let me share something that might surprise you: every 37 seconds, someone in the U.S. faces the tragic curtain call of cardiovascular disease.
That’s a staggering 697,000 hearts silenced each year. Now, let me tell you where you come into this picture. Through effective fundraising, we can make strides in research and awareness.
And one of the secret weapons?
Merchandising.
Let’s dive in!
Importance of Merchandising in Fundraising
Imagine wearing a chic tee that not only makes you look good but does good. Merchandise doesn’t just help raise funds, it becomes a conversation starter, reminding everyone of the cause.
Plus, every time you check out that adorable wristband or trendy tote bag, you’re reminded of the heartwarming role you play.
