Organizing A Fundraiser

The first most important thing to remember about organizing a fundraiser is summed up in this quote from Benjamin Franklin...

"If you fail to prepare, then you are preparing to fail."

Organizing a Fundraiser - Rewarding Fundraising Ideas

Quite simply, if you want to run a profitable fundraiser, you have to plan and prepare properly! You must have a fundraising plan...

...Otherwise you'll be wasting your own time and effort!

So take your time... read through the different organizing pages in this section... and then make sure you plan your fundraisers properly!

This planning a fundraiser section of Rewarding Fundraising Ideas is split up into different pages that cover specific types of fundraisers. It also covers important topics like finding volunteers...

So let's get started... Here are the different pages for planning and organizing fundraisers...

The Must Have Website:

Every fundraising cause should have a website and the 'why you must have a fundraiser website' section is a must read. A fundraising website opens up the most amazing amount of fundraising possibilities! Don't go without one!

Volunteers:

With many fundraising ideas you will need to recruit help and find volunteers. And guess what, organizing a fundraiser is usually a lot easier with a bit of help..

So read these guidelines on finding volunteers... Or you could also possibly check out this website on charity volunteers.

Accepting Donations:

Many of your fundraising ideas will involve you accepting donations. In fact, you should always encourage people to donate to your worthy cause!

There are ways of finding and accepting donations both online and offline... and you should be using both ways!

An online company called PayPal will make the accepting of online donations quite easy.

Read the internet fundraising donations page to find out more.

Finding offline donations is usually accepting cash and cheques from supporters. You can also have people donate via direct deposits or EFT to your bank account... but just be careful when giving out your bank details.

Some great ideas for seeking donations would be using donations sheets which you hand out to your friends, family and supporters... or another great idea is the free fundraiser idea of taking to the streets!
