Planning your event
There are lots of things to think about when planning your
fundraising event.
Step 1
Decide on the event you
want to hold and who you will
invite to take part.
Step 2
Plan the details. Where
will you hold it? When will it
be? How much will it cost to
organise?
Step 3
Think about how you will
raise money. Will you be selling
tickets, for example, and if so how
many do you need to sell? Maybe
you want to get lots of people
together to ask them to sponsor
you, if so how will you do that?
Step 4
Find some helpers: make
a list of everyone you think will be
able to help you in your quest to
raise money. Fundraising is great,
and with more people helping
you out, it will be quicker and
more fun to do!
Step 5
Publicise your event. Put
up posters, hand out flyers, talk
to people, email them, invite your
friends on Facebook, get your
friends to invite their friends, and
tell the press.
Step 6
Most important of all –
enjoy yourself and don’t forget to
say thank you to everyone who
has supported you!
