Raising funds can be a nightmare especially when done in a small town where everybody is reluctant to part with their hard-earned money. And who would not be? Lets face it with rising costs of living, a few dollars given to charitable projects is not a joke. Before a person donates his dollars, he needs a damn good reason for it!
One way to organize a fundraising is through an event, where guests can enjoy themselves and at the same time support a good cause. Often, these events will include activities that will generate funds for the organization. Primary of this is the selling of goods and services that will make up the majority of the fundraising campaign.
Below are some good ideas for events that you can organize to introduce your project.
Fashion Shows
This may seem pretty expensive to organize but it can be really cheap. In fact, you can even get kids in the community involved thereby extending good will and camaraderie with the locals. Make local town folks wear clothes that will later be auctioned off for the charity project. Chances are the models themselves will be buying the clothes.
Dinner
This is another great...
