An idea for flea markets, farmers markets and fairs

An idea for flea markets, farmers markets and fairs.

Fundraisers for a school or children’s charity

If you are raising money for a school you adopted or a local children’s charity then this is a good place to do it. There are many ways to do this. If the children are selling something your rent the space and provide the awning and let the children sell. Be sure you have s good sign for your church and people available to talk with the people who stop by.

You can have a raffle. Get local businesses to give prizes for the raffle. Have all of the items on display. Try to have at least one very nice prize. Include very clear signage for what the raffle is for. Make sure that it is clear that your church is sponsoring the raffle for the charity. Have larger raffle tickets so that it is easy for them to write their name your half of the ticket and room on their half that states that the raffle is sponsored by your church. Have a specific time at the end of the event that the tickets are drawn. Provide the school or charity with a supply of raffle tickets to sell. Since every ticket has your church info on it is brings not only more exposure to your church but raises money for the school or charity. Be sure to send a press release to your local papers telling of the success of the event.
