Forte Provides The Breast Cancer Marathon With an Exciting Approach to Their Online Fundraising

Forte’s new team fundraising technology engages participants and supporters online with new and improved tools for the web.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) - Aug 06, 2009 -
West Palm Beach - For Release - Forte is proud to announce the rollout of the latest online applications for the 26.2 with Donna National Breast Cancer Marathon. Beyond Forte’s custom online registration tools launched in January 2009 at this year’s race expo, Forte’s new custom fundraising technology empowers participants, supporters and donors to make next year’s event the most successful fundraising year yet!
Forte’s TeamFundraiser includes a variety of fundraising options for both registrants and donors.  These applications, coupled with Forte’s friendly and knowledgeable customer service staff, tailored-pricing options and unique approach to software development, offer a huge advantage over the leading online event registration providers.

TeamFundraiser allows registrants and donors alike the ability to set up individual and/or team fundraising pages using Forte’s easy-to-use content editor. Fundraisers customize their own webpage with personalized stories and imagery to compel donors to give. Fundraisers also encourage friends and family to contribute and/or join their team by using Forte’s viral marketing tools, including eBlasts.  Recognition is given to top fundraisers, contributors and teams, increasing the competitive nature of donors and enticing them to give more.

Robert Anderson, Forte Vice-President, marathon runner, and three-time Ironman Finisher, states, “The mission behind this race is extremely important to us at Forte and that’s why the online registration functionality must be second to none. As a participant in the Donna Marathon this past year, I developed a clear understanding of how our online tools can be vital in fostering great success and promoting awareness for the cause.  We are proud to partner with Donna Deegan and the Mayo Clinic in promoting this wonderful event.”

The 26.2 with Donna National Marathon to Fight Breast Cancer, is the only U.S. marathon dedicated solely to raising funds to end breast cancer. The inaugural race in 2007 drew in 7,000 plus runners and rose over $800,000 to fight breast cancer.  As a two-time breast cancer survivor, Donna has a huge following as an evening news anchor for Gannett Broadcasting’s NBC and ABC affiliates in Jacksonville, Fla. She is also the founder of The Donna Foundation, which funds the critical needs of underserved women with breast cancer, as well as the “26.2 with Donna” program. Donna is an avid marathon runner, completing several after her cancer diagnosis.
