Other Fundraiser Ideas
Choosing a unique and fun event that many will enjoy can help ensure
success for your fundraiser. Here are some ideas that are especially suited
for schools, clubs, churches, offices and other community organizations:
Cake Auction
Have prominent people in the community or celebrities donate
cakes and other baked goods to auction.
Other Auctions
Ask for donations from the community.
Singing Telegrams
Buyers select the song, recipient and any special message.
Singers visit the recipient in their class to give the telegram, a hit
for Valentines day!
Silly Olympics
Pick fun and silly games for an “Olympics” day.
Participants pay an entry fee per game or for the whole day. Prizes
(donated) are given to winners of each contest or game. Combine this
program with food booths for more fun and profits.
Murder Mystery Party
When you host a Dinner and a Murder Mystery Party your guests
will be immersed in an evening of treachery, murder, blackmail, intrigue
and back stabbing. Sounds exciting, don't you agree! Get the full scoop
on this fun fundraiser event!
Theatre Event
Good for schools or choirs.
“Pop Idol” Talent Show.
Online Fundraising Page or Site
An effective way to get your cause or charity known is to be
on the world wide web. Luckily, setting up a page or a website couldn’t
be easier:
Decide what you want to do on your page –
the size, if you will be accepting donations online and so on.
Create your page. There are loads of templates and
free software online that makes it easy to do and requires no technical
skills. Following step-by-step instructions you can personalize it
with your own pictures, text, page name, fundraising goal and URL.
If a novice and looking for a professional look, hire a web development
company to do the work – there are many that will suit any budget.
Email your family, friends and colleagues for support.
They can donate quickly and securely on your page by credit or debit
card from anywhere in the world, or at least find out more about how
to help and participate.
