Fundraising teams struggle to come for many with new fundraising ideas is a constant concern. What ever possessed the club, charity, organization, or come for cause of many charity events with unique fundraisers.

There is something to be said for this approach. A good idea is to capture the imagination of the people to revive jaded volunteers, attract attention and hopefully in the till.

A wise Fund Raiser shouldnever be complicated.

I was reminded of this reading of the UK fundraising efforts of a local high school in the. They wanted to raise money for the victims of the earthquake in Haiti and their approach is a great lesson in following what everyone should be maxim Fundraiser

KISS which stands of course for K EEP I t SS tupid implementation!

The idea came from the school so that they have six framesautomatically had a group of enthusiastic people who wanted to act.

She did not just have a collection, and a sort of fun event would not be appropriate under the circumstances.

Instead, did a little research in Haiti and came up with the idea of a Solidarity Fund Day.

Under their inspiration the colors of the Haitian flag – red and blue Haitian students organized a day of solidarity. Students and teachers paid £ 1.00 donation to wear red and blue toSchool to raise money for the earthquake appeal.

It really does not come much easier. But the day was a fantastic success brings together the whole school to support a cause. In a day and threw more than £ 2,600.

What a great result and congratulations to all involved.

Ok the disaster in Haiti was a unique event and is different from the kind of fundraising, most of us are engaged in one day for day. But we should all be inspired by what theseSchool achieved quickly, easily and with respect. What we want to try to tie money for themselves not to increase in knots – Keep It Simple Stupid.
