RELAY FOR LIFE
Fund Raising Ideas
A-Z
S
Sell Employee Services: i.e., get the best
gourmet chef on your ream to agree to go to someone’s
borne and prepare a meal (for a fee of course). Get your
EVP to commit to wash an employee’s car for a price, or
several if willing. Have the company photographer take,
a family photo for a certain amount, etc. Could also
hold a raffle for these services.
Shave Your Head: Have someone agree to have their head
shaved once a certain amount has been raised.
Shoe Shines:
Shine shoes for a donation - enlisted men would love it.
Shutter bug Mania: Into photography? Take candid shots
around the community, schools, etc. and sell to subject.
Or take photos at a friend’s wedding, anniversary party
or birthday.
Sign Relay
T-Shirt: For a donation of $5 (or amount
designated by you) the contributor can write the name of
the cancer patient they are honoring or in memory of
directly on your Relay T-Shirt. You will walk/run in
representing the cancer patients listed.
Skunk Them:
As a hospital group did, put a stuffed skunk on a
coworker’s desk. They need to pay a donation to your
team to have him go away or they need to pay to be
deskunked. See Flamingo Alert for other ideas.
Soup Sales:
Especially during the cold months, take orders from your
coworkers and have a soup day at work. If you work in
town, offer it out to the offices throughout the
community -take orders ahead of time and have an evening
of team soup making.
Spaghetti Dinner:
Have your team put together a spaghetti dinner at a
local hail or club. School teams have also done this
with the help of their parents. The students take the
tickets, wait and clear the tables.
Sports
Tournaments: Teams organize bowling, hockey,
basketball, soccer, etc. tournaments.
Story time
Reading: Have an organized story time reading.
Hold it at your place of work where employees can bring
in. their children, or work with your local library to
have a special time. Also a good idea for on site fund
raising.
Student/Faculty
Basketball Game: Set up a benefit basketball
game between students and faculty. Or put together an
alumni game. Challenge a local radio or television
employee team.
Super Bowl Party:
Have a Super Bowl Party and ask everyone for a donation
when they get there. It is certainly worth it after all
the trouble you go to organize the party and provide the
refreshments. Same can be done for the NCAA Championship
Basketball game, Indy 500, Masters final round, etc.
Great idea for the team member with the large screen TV.
