We are holding a benefit for my sister who was recently diagnosed with Leukemia. It is at a bar. We have had many many donations from local businesses and have put them into baskets to raffle off. The problem is, we have 15 baskets! What are some other ideas on how to give the donations out, but still make money? One idea I had is, take 3 or 4 gift certs and after the baskets go off, combine all the rest of the tickets, and then pull from there. I have a few other ideas, but because the benefit is at a bar, I just dont think that the ideas and alcohol go together! lol. So please, any ideas??
--------------------
Raffles... Silent Auctions... Um... Just a big "Donation" jar... Your idea of individual baskets and then one MASS raffle is a VERY good idea... Here is a list of types of Auctions... You might get some inspirations from there... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auction What about having the bar tack on an extra $0.25 to each drink purchased at the fundraiser and donate that amount on top of what you raise at auction? Um... What else? You could auction off dates with hot guys and girls... This used to be a premise used on TV Shows in the 90's... You get taken out to dinner by a hotty... Bake Sale? Well... I hope I helped and I wish your sister well. My cousin (18) just finished chemo and treatment for his Leukemia and he is now healthy so don't think that you are alone or that all is lost... Leukemia is survivable! *HUG*
