Our alum. association has adopted as its philanthropy "Grin Kids" - it's a charity that was created by 2 morning radio dj's to support terminally ill and chronically handicapped children. Any time they have an event, we participate. The cool thing is there are so many options...they do an annual walk/run in September, and we participate in that, we make an annual Founder's Day donation, one of the dj's has a band that plays at locations around Charlotte and all proceeds go to Grin Kids, so we'll attend the concerts, etc. Look around your area and see if a radio station has established some kind of charity like that, or even if they support one - they'll be more likely to have planned events that your group can attend w/o having to deal w/ the stress of planning one from scratch.
