Fund raiser

A Fund Raiser is an organized event, attempting to collect money. The money to be collected is usually for a specific item or need. The event also can entail gimmicks or activities to promote donor interest. Common fund raising activities include a dunking tank, custard pie, clowns, plays, guest speakers, marathon, dinner, small item collection such as soup can labels or soda can tabs, and bake sales. The cause is frequently but not exclusively a charity, office holiday party, or political fund raiser for campaign contibiutions. Political fund raisers often charge many times more per dinner plate, and feature guest speaker politician/s and other party support speakers.

Ideas on how to make a fund raiser successful

*Keep all items that are being sold confined into a box with small sections. The box should have images of what is being sold (for example, chocolate bars like Hersheys)
*The idea of reeling in money is to target big crowds. When sitting in some kind of public vehicle (bus, subway) the box should be opened and displayed.
*Persuasion. Simply talk to one or a group of people why you would like to sell the product/ items.
*If people do not see what you are selling, try to make it somewhat visible (by carrying the box on your hands)
