Building on the success of their 2023 partnership which raised over $140,000 GoFundraise and the American Cancer Society (ACS) are continuing to work together to empower Spartan Racers to raise critical funds in the fight against cancer.
“We’re thrilled to continue our partnership with ACS and empower Spartan racers to make a real difference, by raising vital funds for ACS” said Stuart Finlayson, CEO of GoFundraise. “The dedication and passion of the ACS community is truly inspiring, and we’re proud to provide the tools and resources that empower them to make a real difference in the fight against cancer.”
Last year passionate athletes and supporters leveraged GoFundraise’s user-friendly platform to raise critical funds for the American Cancer Society’s lifesaving mission. This partnership empowered participants to seamlessly integrate fundraising into their Spartan race experience, turning their athletic pursuits into a force for good. Together, fundraisers helped ACS surpass their fundraising goal by 40%.
“I only have great things to say about the GoFundraise platform. It is user friendly, adaptable, and an overall great platform. The support that your staff provides is top-notch and you are very knowledgeable on the platform. I feel like any question I had for you all was met with immediate guidance. I think every race should use you as their platform!” said Paul Purdy, Strategic Director, Endurance Events and Network Fundraising, ACS
