Philanthropy Ideas

Hi girls!

We're having a little problem here with our philanthropy recruitment parties. Our fall phil. rec. party is always the making of Lion IV bag covers. That is fine. However, our formal recruitment in the spring ... is in big trouble. The hospitals no longer want our boo-boo bunnies!

We have a whole bunch left over from the past two years. So, just making more doesn't do our philanthropy any good.

Do you guys have any ideas about what we could do for formal recruitment on philanthropy night? What do you all do?

Thanks in advance from myself, and our fabulous recruitment chair, DANA!

We struggle with this every year. Is there a reason you can't do IV bags in the spring? Is it too expensive? If it is, maybe the rushee can make one, and the rusher would make a little card to go with it. We also heard about lion hand puppets from another chapter. The felt would already be cut out, but the rushee would glue the shapes together and glue the little googly eyes on (I love googly eyes!).

Well, since were a little "behind" on planning, our philanthropy party for the fall is this Thursday...so we'll be doing our IV bags on Thursday. We don't want to do the same thing for both parties. UGH!

Puppets may be good...yet...possibly too similar to the IV bags. And the one reason we can't give the kids in the hospital the boo-boo bunnies is becauseof the glued on eyes...so that rules out puppets.

Difficulty!!!

Thanks though
