set up a flea market type weekend event.
find a large parking lot you can use for a weekend... rent out spaces in the parking lot to people who are looking to have a yard sale.. figure you charge them 20 dollars for each space for them to sell their stuff. First you'd have to advertise for people looking to have a yard sale, then you'd have to advertise for the event itself. I've never done it, but i always thought it would be a good idea. If you only get 20 people and charge them 20 dollars each day your looking at $800 right there.

Dodgeball sounds better then it is with adults. We had one and canceled our second because of lack of teams. I got a bunch of verbal yes responses, but no registrations or checks to go with them.
Stay Safe

Stay Safe I think that was due to bad timing. If i remember correctly, it was scheduled around a holiday. |

My departments Benevolent Association held a Doo Wop Dinner / Dance and no one thought it was going to be a successful as it was. Within 6 months they held another and everyone was saying that it was way too soon. They were turning them away at the door. They are holding another , the first this year, on April 19th. Tickets are $35, includes dinner, beer, wine, soda, coffee and cake, live entertainment til midnight. 50/50 and a very large basket of cheer tickets will be available for purchase. It may not be your cup of tea, with it being Doo Wop but the 40 and over crowd love it. We also saw some of the younger ones out on the dance floor trying to 'cut a rug.' North Patchogue FD, Sat. April 19th. Doors open at 6:300 For tickets and info call 631-475-1788 ext. 242

I am sure you will find Passport To Giving an innovative way to provide a dynamic and ongoing source of new funding for your organization. Our Travel Program is unique to the non-profit industry in that it provides your organization with a private label travel website branded with your organization’s name and logo. The website is similar to Expedia® and has all the selections and features of other online booking websites. Your new travel website provides an alternate source for your supporters to book their business and personal travel… travel they are most likely already booking online. In fact, current statistics show that up to 82% of all personal travel is booked online. It would be a simple shift for your supporters to book their travel with your organizations‘s travel website. They would receive competitive travel rates or better, and they would be helping a cause in which they believe. According to a recent Cone/Roper study, “86% of all Americans would likely switch brands to support a cause when price and quality are equal.” Most importantly, each time your supporters book travel, your organization will receive, as royalties, 60% of all the travel commissions YTB receives from travel booked on your site. This would produce a source of fresh money for you. It is also important to note: • The program is not a long-term agreement. You are not committed for any predetermined length of time. • We help you develop a custom marketing program to promote the website through your existing communication channels. • Travel commissions are paid by third party vendors, not your supporters. • Even a small portion of your supporters using the program, still produces a huge financial windfall. • The program requires virtually no management by your organization. I would welcome the opportunity to provide more information to you and anyone else in your organization who would want to learn more about our exciting fundraising program. If you like, you may also review our website at www.passport2giving.com. If you have any questions, please contact me via email at Turner@tvcconnect.net |
