How they raise money
Source: Alyssa K. Silva.
The organization raises funds through a few initiatives, including:
- An online shop that allows people to “shop for a cure” and purchase t-shirts that challenges the world to “dare to be remarkable”
- An annual fundraising gala that features yummy food, good music and all the glitz and glamour that can be had. This event actually started as a spur of the moment idea to host a golf tournament that was planned and executed with great success in about 6 weeks. Remarkable!
- Through the sale of the Dare to be Remarkable documentary through Vimeo and Amazon. This documentary shares the details of Alyssa’s life, and her journey with SMA. All proceeds from the sale of the production go to WOW.
