When you have made up your mind that it is time to throw a fundraiser to help your NGO, sometimes the idea for what to do just won’t come. Here is a list of ideas that will help set you on the right track and spark your inspiration to throw the best fundraising event.
Charity Auctions
These events are wonderful and can be quite inexpensive, depending on your targeted audience. You can auction anything from wonderful meals to pricey art pieces and this is what makes this type of event practical for everyone.
A Walking or Running Race
If you have an NGO related to wellness, animals, or nature, races are the perfect option that will appeal to your audience and become a true success.
Keep in mind important details like keeping the participants hydrated.
Trivia Tournaments
Your NGO’s cause might be any children-oriented matter and this type of event will fit you like a glove. The kids’ parents and relatives will love to join them in these tournaments, as they are sympathetic to your goals and it gives them a chance to show off their offspring’s knowledge.
Talent Show
Especially useful for any NGOs with an artistic cause, or aimed at teens and kids. These talent shows are always fun, and many people are encouraged to participate without having to offer them extravagant prizes.
Alumni Networking Dinner
Networking is paramount for succeeding in any career you choose, but it is far from easy to start for some people. If your cause has anything to do with students and recent graduates, letting them meet potential sponsors over a casual dinner will work to everybody’s advantage.
Date Night Auction
An event that is fit for just about any NGO, this kind of auction offers the chance to have a date with some likeable or even famous individual. You can make it fun, remember that the nature of the actual mood of the event will be determined by your audience’s preferences.
Sports Skills Clinic
When you want to draw in the passionate sports fans to support your NGO, offering them the chance to receive a skills clinic by a talented coach is a hoot and a half.
Tree Planting Party
You can never plant too many trees and throwing a tree planting party is a lovely way to bring some attention to any related cause. This type of event gives something back to the planet while you make a buck and spread the word about your NGO.
