Fundraising help
I have a personal craft business I started with a friend. We do several fundraisers. What you need to do is find some local crafters in your area - etc.. jewelry makers, Mary Kay reps, Pampered chef reps, someone who sells purses, maybe get a massothereapist to do 10 minute messages for $5, a manicurist and so on. If you have a location have them set up and call the evening "Ladies Night Out" You can offer drinks and appetizers and desserts. Make it last about 2-3 hours and have them donate 20% of their sales to you. To make it less expensive have each of the sales reps bring a dessert - to cut down on your cost - you can also have them each donate something for door prizes. My partner and I have done these before. They are really fun - you make money and the reps do too! If you are in Ohio I can help you out but if not maybe I can find some people in your area. Good Luck!
