HOW CAN YOU RAISE FUNDS FOR CEF?
There are endless ways you can raise funds for CEF. Every option has its pros and cons, but the most important thing is that you do something that will resonate with your community or the group of people you are targeting.
Events are often the staple of fundraising for our foundations. There are so many types of events from a basic chocolate fundraiser to an extravagant cocktail party right through to pushing a paper mâché pig across the country … but there is one thing that stays a constant … it must make money!
Whatever your event, some key points to think about to make sure it is a success are why, when and how … you will also need a key driver (that could be you!) and a great team behind you.
