| GENERAL FUNDRAISING IDEAS |
|
BALLOON RACE - usually with a cash prize for the balloon which travels the furthest |
| AUCTION OF PROMISES - auction of pre-arranged prizes, donated by supporters, ranging from tickets to sporting events to promises to clean cars, a given number of hours of gardening, or similar. |
| CAKE SALE [sold in break / recess these raise a surprising amount of funds] |
| RAFFLES |
| TOMBOLA |
| SPORTING EVENTS |
CELEBRITY BREAKFAST (or LUNCH) - usually with a photographer in attendance,
so that people attending can pay separately to have a photo taken with the Celebrity |
| QUIZ NIGHT |
BOARD GAME NIGHT - anything from Scrabble to Monopoly,
with set timeframes for heats and the final |
MYSTERY AUCTION - where everyone attending brings a pre-wrapped gift for auction
(usually with a specified minimum-level gift value of say Ł5 or $10) |

If you're looking to raise a *lot* of money (many thousands of pounds or dollars) you might wish to take a look at "The Illuminated Bible". Whole congregations (or children at church schools) might enjoy creating one of these, and the sponsorship potential is endless .... click here. |
