Book Description

October 1993 0873224000 978-0873224000
This book presents ideas for raising money and the complete plans needed to implement them. From standards such as car washes and candy sales to ideas such as a mile of art show or a cow drop, this guide offers 70 proven fundraising ideas. For each event, readers will find: an explanation and detailed description; an estimate of the potential net income; suggestions about when to plan and hold the event; time requirements for planning and implementation; the degree of complexity; the resources needed in facilities, seed money, equipment and supplies; suggested publicity and promotional activities; staffing and personnel requirements; information about necessary permits or licenses; and tips for managing financial or legal risks.

Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Stier (sports management/athletic administration, SUNY at Brockport) presents a cornucopia of ideas for fundraising events appropriate for civic clubs, athletic organizations, religious groups, schools, and even Friends of Libraries groups. Ideas are listed in four categories according to the potential amounts of money to be generated and range from car washes and cow drops to fashion shows, house tours, marathon parties, pee wee wrestling matches, and more. Each event listed notes the potential net income, complexity of arranging, scheduling criteria, requisite resources, risk managment, permits or licenses, and hints to make the event successful. There are also notes about games of chance, alcoholic beverages, sales tax, permissions needed, and record keeping. Few other titles pull this type of information together in one place and present it so easily. Recommended for most public and school libraries.
