Fundraising Information


INCENTIVE PRIZES  |  FUNDRAISING TIPS  |  RESOURCES

The Hustle Up the Hancock is the largest fundraising event for Respiratory Health Association of Metropolitan Chicago. This year's goal is to raise $1.3 million to promote healthy lungs and fight lung disease.  With your help, we can reach our goal.

Fundraising is easier than it sounds, all you have to do is ask.  If you ask 10 people for $20 you will raise $200. If you don't ask for support, people don't know you are looking for it.  Plus, you can do all of your fundraising online by using the online event management system. When you registered you received a personal webpage which you can personalize with a photo and text about your motivations for climbing. In addition, climbers are able to send e-mails to friends and family asking for support, and to receive online credit card pledges.

Donations can be made online at www.lungchicago.org and then click on the Hustle Up the Hancock logo.  Then click on "Search/Sponsor a Climber" to make a donation. 

Any offline donations (cash or checks) that are collected can be mailed to Respiratory Health Association of Metropolitan Chicago. Please include a completed pledge sheet or donation form with your donations.
