| Another fundraiser scheduled  | | | | I've shceduled another fundraiser to make money for my Breast Cancer 3-Day walk in October. I'm almost halfway to my goal and I should be halfway by next week. I'm hoping that I'll be very close by mid-July because I'm having a pretty big fundraiser at a local restaurant. The Greene Turtle Sports Bar and Grille sets aside Tuesdays to hold their Funds for Friends campaign. They arrange with local people to donate 10% of their sales for the day to charity. I have scheduled with our local Greene Turtle to have my day on Tuesday, July 8th. It's great, I tell all my family and friends, I put out some flyers, contact the local newspaper, whatever "advertising" I want to do for this day. The idea is to get as many people as I can to visit this restaurant on my day - July 8th - so that the sales will be pretty high. Then my Breast Cancer 3-Day walk fund gets 10% of their sales! I'm pretty excited about it and if it goes over well, I have another restaurant that I'd like to approach and see if they'll do the same thing for me. I'm still selling raffle tickets for my July fundraiser - $5 tickets are eligible for a nightly $50 prize. If you're interested in buying a raffle ticket, let me know - sale ends Monday night (6/30/08). Have you ever done fundraising like these? How did it work out for you? | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | Oh, that is pretty strange... But unfortunately, I had to reschedule it until July 29th. They didn't realize they already had a fundraiser scheduled on that day so I have to move my date. I'm still excited about it! And I'm glad you're a survivor! | | | | | | | Fundraising With Popcorn Raise Funds The Fun & Healthy Way, Get Pricing & Product Info Online! www.PopcornPalace.com | add comment | | | |

| | Hey Reiny I have to say right now that I have never done a fundraiser like this and I probably never would, if I did, I would rather not be up front in it, I would do what I could getting support....but I probably wouldn't do it if it meant trying to get people to sponsor me. I hope the fund raiser went well for you and that you raised a lot of awareness for cancer and made some good money to your charity. Mooch | | | | | | | reinydawn (4411)

| | I'm hoping it all goes well too! The July raffle did not go as good as the June one, so I probably wont do it again. But for dinner out, that should go well. Only I had to reshedule it to July 29th because they booked to for the 8th. | | | | | | | Top 5 Fundraising Ideas!
