Top 26 Ideas for Fundraising Events 2019

  • Top fashion show. Have a podium? Have a couple dozen people of model appearance? Do you cooperate with Parisian fashion houses? We are happy for you, but you will not need any of this for your Top Fashion show: Fundraising Edition. Arrange a fashion show from several of your beauties and handsome volunteers!
  • Meet for Charity. Donators are invited to purchase a date with a particular person – a simple guy and girl or a movie star and pop star.
  • Quiet auction. Choose lots that you want to sell (something symbolic and something valuable), decide on the starting price, write this price on a large piece of paper, mark the auction step and draw a table where people can enter their bids and contacts. Everything is quiet, anonymous, and interesting. Try it!
  • Carnival. No, we are not talking about the pompous Venetian or Brazilian carnivals, although you can have a theme evening in this style. We are talking about funny dressing ups, self-made shops and themed games. Personalize your carnival and your fundraising campaign will succeed.
  • On pins and needles. Create a room filled with balloons. Put some prizes in some of these balls and invite guests to buy a needle for these balls.
  • Open Day. Even if have in a tiny room, this is not a reason to shut off from the outside world 365 days a year. Arrange a paid tour of the life of your organization, where you will boast of reports, show which mug you drank when you came up with this or that project, and acquaint your donors for what they donated their money.
  • Charity date. Right now, a lot of lonely people are gathering for a date. Most likely, they go to a nearby restaurant or cinema, if you do not have time to invite them to come to you. In this way, you accumulate all the power of lovers and receive dedicated volunteers for one evening.
  • Funny Friday. Every Friday night, people around the world gather to have a good time. Why not invite them to have fun with you, while spending exactly the same amount as they spend on a regular Friday! Just do not forget about fun! Your party should be cool.
  • Ugly Sweater Party. Everyone has a terrible sweater in the closet that was tied up by a grandmother, a mother, an aunt, or some sister-in-law. Offer everyone to come to your party in such a sweater.
  • Good morning. A non-alcoholic party in the morning with dances and freshly squeezed juice. It sounds tempting, isn’t it?
  • Charity dishes. Arrange an evening of cocktails, where everyone is obliged to buy a container for drinks at the entrance. A single-use cup is fine for the container, and all the money from this container goes to charity.
  • Silent Disco! If you still have not heard of quiet discos, then welcome to YouTube. It looks very funny, but that makes it even better.
  • Paper lanterns. If the local government has not prohibited the centralized launching of Chinese paper lanterns, you can gather people and make it – it is always beautiful.
  • Photo exhibition. You obviously know some photographers from your city. Ask them to take catchy photos regarding the results of your activities. Print and hang them – photo exhibition is ready, you can sell tickets.
