I'm About to Do My First Fundraiser!!!!

In summary, the conversation is about a potential fundraiser for a company that works with people with disabilities and their families. The suggestion is to have a cooking show followed by collecting orders from attendees and setting a goal for the amount they want to raise. It is also mentioned that people can purchase items to be auctioned off and that booking future shows can add to the amount donated. It is recommended to educate oneself on the fundraiser process and to offer incentives for the person who brings in the most orders.

First, you need to educate yourself on the way a fundraiser works, who qualifies, how and how much is donated, etc. You don't want to share incorrect information!

Get everyone involved. Have a big fundraiser cooking show followed by having everyone go home with catalogs and order forms to collect orders to add to the fundraiser. Get good contact info on every person who takes catalogs and order forms so you can follow up with them.

Have the group let you know their goal for how much they'd like to raise. Then with that you can let them know how much they need to collect in orders to reach it.

Set a firm deadline, not too long, for all orders to be submitted.

In addition, if possible, people could purchase items to be auctioned off at another event. They'd get the initial donations from the show/fundraiser, then they'd also have other ways to add to their funds raised.

Remind them that all shows booked will add an additional $3 to the amount donated. You could offer an incentive. I usually offer the host 60% item (my choice) to the person who brings in the most in orders.
