What would be some great fundraising or just plain event ideas?

I suggest you go to Rewarding Fundraising Ideas (RFI) and look through the ideas you'll find there. You'll find some excellent event ideas and ordinary fundraisers! Here are a few that you could look at when you're at RFI... Events: -A Golf day usually always works but it is quite hard work. In fact most events are hard work. -A Food taste evening or a taste test evening are two really fun events that are quite profitable two. A taste test evening will work really well with a cookbook fundraiser... You use the taste test evening to promote your cookbook. Definitely worth considering. -Go-Cart racing. Too much fun but probably won't bring in as much profits as the other events. -Any sports event will usually work well... Like what about a Dodgeball compo, or a mini soccer tournament! Remember to add as many extra fundraisers to your events as possible like raffles, food and drinks stands, betting, auctions etc. -The online Auction Fundraiser is also a fundraiser definitely worth considering and one that can be unbelievably profitable! You should also set up a facebook page to promote your fundraisers and cause! Set up a method for people to donate online (Paypal offers a really good online donation/payment solution) and then link to it via your facebook page. Then invite all your friends, family and contacts to join the page and take part by sponsoring a small amount ($2 - $5; Compare it to something like a couple of cokes or a few beers. Something so small that they wouldn't even miss it if they didn't get it)! Write a emotive invitational letter that makes people feel like they are already involved. Also encourage them to forward the invitation on to all their contacts. Make sure you advertise all of your fundraisers on your Facebook page. Try to also keep people interested in the page by updating it often and keeping people in the loop of how your fundraising is going etc.! Some other fundraisers to consider... -The Online Magazine Fundraiser - This is always the first fundraiser I suggest. It is one of the best and hassle-free fundraisers you can do! Many people and groups are raising between $2000 - $5000 with this fundraiser while I've seen others raise over $20,000. If you only have time to do one fundraiser... This should be the one you do! -The Credit Card Fundraiser - Another really hassle-free fundraiser that will work really well alongside a magazine fundraiser! Get people to apply for a credit card online and you'll earn $15 for every approved application. --By promoting both of these fundraisers together you increase your likelyhood of getting a positive response... Someone may not want to apply for a credit card but they may be interested in the magazines, or vica versa, or maybe they'll want to do both! -Get Paid Guides - Many people make money online by completing surveys, receiving and reviewing advertising emails, and also just by surfing the net. There are loads of companies on the net that are doing research and also trying to gain exposure and they all pay for it! A get paid guide is a single website that finds and lists all those websites that are offering paid surveys etc. There's usually a once off membership fee but you can generally earn that fee back by doing a couple of surveys! --Most food fundraisers will probably work well for you! Here's a few... -Lollipop fundraiser - This is one of the easiest and profitable fundraisers around. Most people will generally buy a lollipop from you as they are really cheap. A lot of Schools and organizations are having great success with this simple fundraiser! -Cookie Dough Fundraiser - Another really popular and profitable food fundraiser. -Candy Bars - Well, who doesn't want to buy candy bars! --Other food fundraisers are popcorn, fortune cookies... and any food that you think would be popular amongst the people you're going to be selling to. Be creative! -Discount Fundraiser Cards - Another winner! You raise money while saving money for your supporters through the discounts offered on the cards.Win-Win for both of you! And the businesses Win as well as they get more customers to their shops!!! Raffles - A fundraiser that will always work really well. It is also the best fundraiser to add to any type of event. What you must make sure you have is some really great prizes that people actually want to win. That way they'll want to buy as many tickets as possible, to have as big a chance to win! I hope that has helped and given you some ideas. Good luck hey!
