The February 2026 Peer-to-Peer roundup is here! This month we’re highlighting three organizations using GiveSignup to power meaningful, mission-driven events—from a beloved community shuffle with a seven-year track record to a powerful walk advocating for gun violence prevention and a carnival-themed autism awareness event. Plus, we’re sharing two on-demand webinars from our peer-to-peer fundraising lead that are packed with actionable insights for your next event.
RMHC Red Shoe Shuffle
Ronald McDonald House Charities of Maryland has been hosting the Red Shoe Shuffle with GiveSignup for seven years—and last year they hit a milestone worth celebrating: 3,000 Shufflers registered and they raised $500,000 for RMH kids and families facing medical crisis. This year, they’ve upgraded to Website V2 and built an exceptional fundraiser resource page that gives participants everything they need to get started and stay motivated.
How They’re Using GiveSignup:
- Upgraded to Website V2 and created a polished event website reflects their brand.
- Created a custom dedicated fundraiser resource page with an FAQ section, making it even easier for participants to hit the ground running with tools and tips to maximize their impact.
- Included a donation thermometer and countdown clock front and center on their event page building excitement.
Chicago’s Race Against Gun Violence
Chicago’s Race Against Gun Violence is more than a race—it’s a powerful celebration of the life-changing work happening in local communities and a call to action for everyone who cares about ending gun violence. This event brings together multiple charity partners under one roof, creating a collaborative fundraising experience that amplifies impact.
How They’re Using GiveSignup:
- Built a wonderful website that features multiple charity partners, giving participants the ability to fundraise on behalf of the organization that matters most to them.
- Packed their event website with an organized menu with fundraiser resources including fundraising tips, a social media toolkit, and outreach templates — giving participants a clear path to becoming an effective fundraiser.
Autism Walk 2026
The Autism Walk 2026 is put on by the Autism Alliance of NE New York, an organization with a mission to enrich the lives of individuals and families in the autism community by providing resources, creating opportunities for connection, and advocating for an inclusive world where everyone can thrive. This year’s event has a show-stopping carnival theme that carries through every aspect of the experience.
How They’re Using GiveSignup:
- Designed a beautifully themed event website that brings their carnival theme to life throughout their website — creating an immersive experience building excitement for fundraisers and donors by including a countdown clock, donation thermometer, and fundraiser leaderboard.
