Fundraising ideas
in
- Join the Eco-Cell Project. Got any old cell phones lying around your room? Donate your old phones, and money can go to GI-NET and STAND!
- Set up a donation box around your school, workplace, dining hall or place of worship. Distribute information about genocide (you can request flyers from us).
- Ask local musical groups to perform at a “battle of the bands.” Charge admission or set up a donation box at the event.
- Have a bake sale or car wash.
- Organize a tournament involving poker, video games, a dance marathon, etc. Charge admission from the participants of the event. You can either give a small portion of the proceeds to the winner, or have it be a “benefit tournament” with all winnings sent to the anti-genocide cause.
- Local businesses often look to promote philanthropic causes. Educate them on the aspirations of GI-NET and see if they would be willing to make a donation.
- If there is an anti-genocide related event outside your area, encourage your religious organization or other group to sponsor your travel expenses.
