Fundraising
Here's some great ideas for fundraising from schools for your participation in the International Netball & Rugby Festival.
With all events, sending out flyers, emails and text reminders are a must. Create a distribution EMAIL list on your computer of parents of children on the tour. It helps keep the families involved. People run busy lives so they appreciate these reminders.
Please talk to us about a raffle prize for flights.
Pick a Box THIS IS A TOP FUNDRAISER
Run it during the week in the foyer or where everyone can see them or at a FAIR or CAR WASH.
Ask locals for prizes. Have as many prizes as you can and put a box in front of the prize with an opening to drop tickets in.
Sell sheets of 20 numbers for $5.00 per sheet. $13 for three sheets. (They are all the same numbers and the customer keeps a copy of the number as does the seller.)
Place as many tickets in as many boxes against a prize you want to win.
It is addictive.
