- 2. MAZKIRIM/GIZBORIM RELEASE 2013-2014 2 Communications Emails Emailsshould always be your primary method of communication. They are great when trying to reach large amounts of people and work well when trying to get people to sign up for events. When talking about events, remember to include a short description, prices, dates, link to sign up, bussing info, etc. Try to make emails colorful and fun so members are more inclined to read them. Always CC myself, Judi (@gmail.com), Ben (@gmail.com), chapter godolim, and any chapter advisors. BBYO chapters must also CC Julia (@gmail.com) and Rachel (@gmail.com). Phones Calls Every chapter should have a phone tree set up by the Mazkirim. Phone calls should always be more personal and never business only. Make them fun and members are more inclined to attend more events SocialNetworking sites Every chapter should have a twitter account and a Facebook group. It is one of the best ways to quickly and easily post a sign-up link and event reminder. Remind 101 should also be used by every chapter to easily send out text message reminders. Remember that social networking sites do NOT replace emails or phone calls.

- 4. MAZKIRIM/GIZBORIM RELEASE 2013-2014 4 Fundraising Fundraising Themain job of the Gizbor is to raise money for their chapter. The only two events where chapter can sell items are at Kickoff dance and RJI. Outside of selling items at Kickoff and RJI, every chapter should have fundraiser events. Don’t forget that Judi must approve every events and the BBYO logo must be on everything. Stand-Up Stand-Up is BBYO’s way of giving back to the community. Every chapter has a Stand-Up cause that they donate to. Every chapter’s donation to Stand-Up must be sent by Spirit convention in December. The rule of thumb for donations is $6 for every chapter member. R$F R$F stands for Regional Service Fund. When you donate to R$F, you are giving money back to the region to help support all of your favorite conventions, dances, and other events as well as help those who need scholarships. Every chapter must donate at least $300 to R$F by Spirit convention. Fundraiser Checklist Cost: Do you have enough money to fund the fundraiser? Supplies: Do you have all the supplies you will/might need? Volunteers: Do you have enough people to help out? Attendees: Who is attending the event and how can you get a larger attendance? Advisors: There must be at least 1 adult/advisor for every 15 attendees
