1. AUCTIONSCollect sports memorabilia, spa packages, gift baskets and other items to hold a live and or silent auction.

2. COINS FOR A CAUSE – Place coin collection containers in your school, church or local business for a designated period of time. Award the individual or organization that collects the most money.

3. DANCE MARATHON – Ask your school to hold a dance and encourage students to collect pledges.

5. RAFFLES – Hold a 50/50 drawing in which half of the money goes to the winner and the other half to the organization. This is the perfect accompaniment to any event.
