Fundraising Ideas for Non-Profit Organizations

Nonprofits rely on a variety of sources of
income in order to keep operations running, as well as
for
payment of employees  and other
expenses. That funding may come from grants or donations
, and fundraising is usually vital to the success of a nonprofit organization.

 

Fundraising ideas for nonprofit organizations may depend on several factors.
First, the type of organization may dictate the types of fundraising efforts
which would be appropriate. For example, food pantries may ask for donations as
well as hold food drives at which the local community can bring specific types
of goods.

 

However, fundraising ideas for nonprofits may include more creative ideas, such as joining
community efforts with the efforts of the non
profit organization. For instance, the food pantry may
ask local potters to make bowls in their pottery shop. Those empty bowls may
then be sold to the local community as a representation of those that go hungry.

 

Fundraising ideas for nonprofit organizations may also be dictated by local laws
and regulations. For example, certain types of fundraising efforts may not be
legal in certain jurisdictions. For instance, some communities may prohibit
door to door sales of candy, wrapping paper and other items sold for
fundraising.
However, that same community may allow those efforts at storefronts,
where volunteers can sell those items in front of the local grocery store.
