Team Fundraising offer our friends and supporters an enticing means of funding specific BwB programs in the U.S. and around the world.

Team Fundraising is an exciting alternative to individual donations, offering supporters and their friends from far and wide the opportunity to raise money for BwB’s U.S. after-school program and international school construction program.

Targeted to specific projects, such as building a school in a developing country or supporting youth programs here at home, Team Fundraisers are initiated and driven by BwB supporters, putting your contribution to work precisely where you want it to go. Raising funds with your friends, family and colleagues isn't just more fun, it also has a greater impact as you spread the word about how, together, we are finding solutions to world's challenges.

Create Your Own Fundraiser

No matter what your goal, BwB’s fundraising professionals will help you find creative and fun ways to ensure your success. Here are just a few of the many ways you can help raise funds for BwB:

• Host an international cuisine dinner party in your home and ask your guests to donate an "admission fee."
• Host a poker night. Players will "buy" their initial bank at an agreed upon amount. The winning pot will be donated to your fundraising campaign.
• Join a marathon or other sporting event. Ask your family and friends support your every mile.
• For the holidays, ask your friends to donate to your fundraising instead of buying you a gift.
• Plan a fundraiser with your co-workers and ask your company to support your fundraising or to match your gift.
• Host a video game tournament and ask your friends to donate their entrance fee.

Creativity, personality and passion are the keys to your success!
