Virtual events are a great fundraising tool. They are flexible in design and easy to plan and execute because they are not as logistically complex as live events. In addition, other than the cost of an online registration platform and prizes, there are very few expenses, which make these types of events the perfect fundraising option all-year-round.
A virtual event is hosted online. Participants are able to join remotely from wherever they are, instead of gathering in person. These types of events are most often organized around a fitness goal or group activity and, just like a live event, are hosted to raise funds for a charity in remembrance of a special person or to recognize a significant date. Anyone of any ability can participate at their own pace. It can be completed at any location in the time period set forth by the event organizers.
