Hey everyone.
Our relay takes place in a small community in Arkansas. Does anyone have any ideas for fundraisers that work in smaller areas?
Thank you!

Great Small Town Fundraiser
I have posted this idea for a couple of years now, but I wanted to let you know what a great thing it is for small towns especially. It is a portrait fundraiser with Olan Mills. When there is not a place to get good economical portraits like small towns, this is great. This program doesn't cost you anything and you keep 100% of the money and you can even get extra money from them. You sell portrait certificates for $10 (or whatever you want to) and you keep all of that. The person who buys it gets their sitting fee and a 10x13 family portrait or 1-8x10, 2-5x7's, 8-wallets for kids 16 and under. If you have a certain number to photograph, you make bonus money from Olan Mills on top of the the certificate money. We earned over $1200 dollars for two days of photography. We could have made over $2000 for three days. You can get info at their website www.olanmills.com/fundraising

Fundraising idea- easy and effective
Hi Angie,
You should check out CharityFusion.com. You can start a fundraiser for your team on there under the Fundraiser tab. Here's a fundraiser I started on there- http://www.charityfusion.com/kids.
You sign up, it's free, it takes 1 or 2 minutes. Then, you choose your benefiting organization(s), which would be your Relay for Life team (you can choose up to 10), and whenever you and other members shop online (they have over 700 stores), a percentag of your purchases go to the organizations you have chosen.
It's the easiest way I have ever raised money. You don't even have to go to that website to start shopping, you just download their plug-in and then whenever you go directly to a website (for example, Bestbuy.com) a message will appear and let you know that your purchases will benefit your charityfusion organizations. There is a video on the site that explains how it works. It's on the homepage, right hand side.
I hope this helps!!! I'm from a small town in Arkansas and this is great for me because I love to shop online since there is not much here!

Could you email the information on the Easter Egg sale please! It sounds like a great idea, but I need more details to share with my teams! If you could send it to a_thoreen@yahoo.com Thank You!

small town easy reach 2 your community
This is very easy and you will actually reach many of your fellow Relayers in addition to those who have no idea what Relay is. Ask your local grocery store to sit by the entrance/exit and sell luminaries (ask ahead of time as they get many requests, ask if they provide a table/chair because you may need to bring them). My Mom and I started this by selling hotdogs but one weekend we couldn't get the hotdog machine so, quite by accident, we learned we made more money without all the hassle by simply accepting donations and selling luminaries. Of course offer info and brochures, offer a sign up sheet to receive an email or phone call about your next meeting/kick off/fundraiser/date-of event reminder/etc. If your event has a banner ask if you can borrow it to hang behind your table therefore drawing attention to your cause and The American Cancer Society which holds more weight than Relay For Life to non-Relayers. We also used this approach to hand out invitation flyers for our Kick Off.

Fund Raisers Small Towns
Hello!
I come from a small town,too, and I know we contribute a lot of enthusiasm, even if don't quite earn as much money. But when you think about it, per capita, we do a pretty good job! I've been involved for about 3 years. My name is Priss Calanni. My husband, Tom, and I are from Ravenna, Ohio, population:12,000! He is a recent cancer survivor (multiple myeloma). We know how lucky we are and we are anxious to “pay it forward”!
I am writing to you because I wanted to share with you something that Tom and I have been working on even before his cancer diagnosis, and it is something big or little towns can use. Actually, it has been a three-year project. We have made a feature length movie that is about cancer and Relay and it is for the benefit of Relay. The movie is called “Expect a Miracle”. As a matter of fact, the title song of the movie is a first place winner in the ACS’s Sharing Hope.TV song contest!
We are currently working with Relays in Illinois, Ohio, and Delaware. These Relays are using the film as fundraisers. We have just begun trying to making contacts and we are very excited at the responses we’ve received from folks who have seen our website.
So, the best way for you to understand what I’m writing about is to go to our website <expectamiraclethemovie.com> You can see the trailer of our movie and read all about the project.
Tom is a retired school administrator; I taught fourth grade for 30 years and believe me we’ve organized the sale of our DVDs so the directions for the sale are easy and well organized…just like you’d expect from two retired teachers! We have a complete kit that includes a DVD of the trailer and all the “wheres and whats” of the sale. The kit and the shipping of the kit are free too!
It's just hard to get the word out any other way. There is a CONTACT link on our site.
Oh, and here is my regular email address, in case you think it is something your group could use. At ant rate:"Relay on"! And good luck!
Thanks, Priss Calanni prissdoor@yahoo.com
Easter Egg Sale
We start taking orders for Easter Egg's at the end of February. Offering three sizes and three varities. My aunt organizes this fundraiser for me, she usually makes about $800.00 selling to family, co-workers and fellow relayers.
I could even give you the recipe if your group would be interested.

New Fundraising Idea
Greetings, My name is Patience Dean and I am currently working for Arjevio Fundraising based in Indianapolis, Indiana. I would like to introduce myself to everyone who reads this blog and tell a little bit about our fundraising program. I believe the CouponConnex program can provide your teams with the fundraising they need to jumpstart your contributions to Relay For Life. We provide everything you need at ZERO cost, while earning your team a 50% profit. The program is based around selling your supporters a card that provides them a one year online membership to couponconnex.com where they have unlimited access to the thousands of coupons to the top national retailers. With tougher times it become much easier to ask for someone's support when you are offering them thousands of ways to make that money back on their everyday purchases. If CouponConnex is something you would like to explore please email me at patience@arjevio.com and I would be happy to send you additional information as well as answering any questions you may have.
Thank you, Patience Dean patience@arjevio.com
