| Would you like to host an event but you are not
sure what kind of fundraiser to hold? We've put together a list of ideas.
Choose from the list below or plan an event of your own! |
Group
Sponsorship
Join
forces with other members of your book club, women's group, investment club,
etc. to sponsor the education of one child (or two or three...). It costs
$1,500.00 a year to educate one child.
Letter
for HOPE
Personal
letters are an excellent way to encourage others to share your passion for a
cause. Write a note to friends and family about how you were personally
inspired to help the orphaned children in Kenya and email it (or post it) along
with our flyer or a link to the website. Mention a few of the details from FAQ
About The AID and CARE Orphanage Initiative and set a specific fundraising
goal (e.g. "Let’s collect dimes to help our children in Southern Sudan and
Rwanda! If everyone who receives this email pledges $50, we can raise $1,500.00
to fund the educational needs of one child for one year."). It would take
only 30 of your friends to give $50.00 a year to sponsor a child’s education.
Yard
Sale
A yard sale
is a great way to raise money while getting together with friends and
neighbors. Sell your collective clutter and display a large poster indicating
that all proceeds will be donated to supporting the orphaned children in Aweil, Southern Sudan and Kigali,
Rwanda. Have flyers and donation envelopes on hand.
An
Evening Out
Mix
good works and good fun. Connect with a local restaurant or neighborhood
hangout and encourage them to donate a portion of that evening's proceeds to
the cause. Invite your friends and family to join you and you will help
generate business for the restaurant while raising funds to support housing,
clothing, food and an education to the orphan children of Aweil, Southern Sudan
and Kigali, Rwanda.
Holiday
Gift Wrapping
Check
with local merchants who may agree to let you sponsor a gift-wrapping station
during busy shopping seasons, with the donations of shoppers going to benefit
the work of The AID and CARE,Inc.
Donor Profile
Bi-monthly on our website, we will feature a
donor who has found a creative way to help the children of the AID and CARE,
Inc make the journey from Restoring HOPE to motherless and fatherless children.
To submit your donor profile story and picture, email us at info@aidandcareafrica.org.
Nhialic Kek Yin! God Bless you.
