HI!
I am looking to do a fundraiser for a sick friend in need. I have done fundraisers in the past, but they have always been for an organization and I don't know if I can do a fundrasier for a single person. Can anyone help me with ideas on I can do this? Thanks!
 
My understanding is it has to be for an organization. A lady did one for her daughter to help with cost of band one time and the check went to the band, but they credited her account. Another lady did one for her daughter going on a missionary trip; the check went to the organization and they credited the daughter's account. I've heard of people having a bank account for medical purposes; maybe the home office would recognize that.
 
First of all, it's great that you want to help your friend in need! Here are a few ideas for how you can organize a fundraiser for them:1. Set up a crowdfunding page: You can create a crowdfunding page on platforms like GoFundMe or Kickstarter, where you can share your friend's story and ask people to donate to support them. You can also share the link on social media and ask your friends and family to share it as well.2. Organize a charity event: You can organize a charity event, such as a concert, auction, or dinner, and donate the proceeds to your friend. You can also reach out to local businesses and ask if they would be willing to donate items for the auction or sponsor the event.3. Sell merchandise: You can design and sell t-shirts, bracelets, or other merchandise with a message or logo related to your friend's cause. This can be a great way to raise money and also spread awareness about their situation.4. Offer a service: If you have a talent or skill, you can offer your services in exchange for a donation to your friend's fundraiser. For example, if you're a photographer, you can offer mini photo sessions in exchange for a donation.5. Reach out to your community: You can also reach out to your community, such as your church, school, or local organizations, and ask if they would be willing to help by spreading the word or organizing a fundraiser themselves.Remember to always be transparent about where the donations are going and keep your supporters updated on your friend's progress. Good luck with your fundraiser!
