Fundraising
Goal
Be productive!
Be organized!
Be efficient!
Be alert!
Be professional!

include staff, invitations,
space rental, catering,
entertainment,
transportation, security,
utilities, and anything
else that will be required
to make the event a
success
• Be sure to leave a little
extra for unforeseen
costs
8. 8
Leadership
• Assign a “Committee Chairperson” or
“Committee Co-chairs.” These people are
responsible for contributing substantial
amounts to the event and encouraging
others to do the same.
• They should always, of course, report
back to the board officers.

event?
• Is it geared towards kids, high school

Target Audience

or board officers should
plan the event set-up well
in advance.

the particulars of the

schools, etc.
12. Click to edit Master title style

Sales
• Will there be different
contribution levels for the
event (such as a flat ticket
charge, discounts for
members, etc.)?
• Who will sell the tickets? How
they will be shipped or
delivered? Who will be
responsible for organizing the
incoming information?
13. Practice
13
• It is essential that everyone who is working the
event know, ahead of time, what their
responsibilities are, where they should be during
the event, and how the event is going to “flow.”
• If you are having a large or unusual event, the
key event staff may want to have a practice run
to make sure that your operation is running
smoothly.

Thank You
14
• One of the most often heard complaints from
contributors to charitable fundraising events is,
“They never even said ‘thank-you.’”
• Take the time to send thank-you notes to people
who were involved in your event.
• Keep your donors happy…
15. Do’s
• At least a two
week notice, if not
more.
• Delegate
responsibilities
• Be diligent with
planning
• Rough estimate
for # of attendees
• Don’t have one
person control
everything
• Refrain from lack
of communication
• Don’t expect that
someone will take
care of something
