The Seriously Good Guide to Fundraising

The Seriously Good Guide to Fundraising

The Seriously Good Guide to Fundraising was originally produced in 2008 as a soft cover guide which provided practical ideas and advice for community groups wanting to raise funds. Topics covered in the guide included Getting Started, Planning an Event, Sponsorship, Community Funding and Marketing. It also provided details about running specific events such as discos, gala days, food stalls, raffles, tours, auctions and more.

By the end of 2009, 20,000 FREE copies had been distributed to community groups throughout the country.

Due to the demand for the information contained in the guide, The Seriously Good Guide to Fundraising is now available for purchase on CD. Click here to find out more.

Indoor Games Night
Good old fashioned board games are fast becoming extinct with television and computer games definitely taking over. An indoor games night is a fun way to encourage family time with real conversation and you can turn the event into an inter-family challenge.

Families buy tickets to enter the event and they compete against other families in various games. Choose simple games that everybody knows or can learn quickly, and build in a special twist. Perhaps they could play 'pick up sticks' using giant sticks, or play chess where each person has to take turns deciding the next move.

"I would just like to say thank you for the great job you all do. I have only just recently started to attend some of the events you plan and run and I have been very impressed. The variety of information, the organisation of the events, the communication with everyone - you all do a fantastic job.  I am learning a lot."
