Honey-Do FundraisingHow many times have you asked, "Honey, will you do . . .," and waited (and maybe waited some more) for a home-improvement project to be completed? The Women Build project of Syracuse Habitat for Humanity held a Honey-Do fund-raiser. Each raffle ticket entered the buyer into a drawing to win a crew of "Habitat Helpers" to help with a home improvement project. Helpers could paint a room, organize a closet or pantry, install a light fixture or small appliance, plant a garden in the spring, or help with garage or basement cleaning, but no housework. You could also suggest a project, and a team leader would assess its feasibility. Raffle tickets were $5 each or five for $20. |

We have included a number of do-it-yourself fundraising ideas in this
section such as a Honey Do that offer a break from traditional
product sales. They were developed by groups just like yours in an
attempt have a little fun with their fundraiser. Some of them are tried
and true while others show a lot of creativity ... and even wackiness in
some cases. All of them are obviously not appropriate for every
group, but sometimes, with only a little modification, your might find
some fund raising ideas that are perfect for your group. If you have an
idea for a do-it-yourself fund raiser you are willing to share with
others, please send it to us via email at |
