We’ve got our first group fund raising (is it fund raising, or fundraising?) event set for April. Now, I hope some of the group can assist me that day, or it’ll be me and Catherine collecting all of the cash for my own account. If you’ve got money to raise, give your local grocery store a call - most will allow to stand out front and solicit donations if you can prove you’re collecting for a real charity. We’ve got a whole system - I’ve got a card table, chairs, and a pink table cloth I bring. We’ve got a poster that briefly explains who we are and what we’re doing, and we’ve got big industrial sized mayo containers (plastic) with handles to collect the cash. We’ve been using the same supplies for 3 years and it makes getting ready for these events super easy.
