Just a few fundraiser ideas

 

Pet Fundraiser Ideas

These are general fundraiser ideas focused around pets.

5K or 10 K Dog Walk/Run

This will take a lot of work to plan but the returns are excellent, and the event is a lot of fun. The link gives you an idea on how to plan this type of event.

Egg My House

Talk about a fun raiser. Egg My House Fundraiser for Lola's Rescue. The link shows how another group that did this.

Tag the Bag

You could use a travel crate. Here it was done with a suitcase, but it's the same idea. Both the crate and the money raised are donated to Lola's Rescue.

Paper Airplane Contest

Paper Airplane Contest – for accuracy. Make and fly paper planes from the second story of a building to try to land them on the Lola's Rescue's logo or a big drawing of an object below. All planes must be constructed from standard 8 1/2 x 11 copy paper, with no added parts. $5 per plane entry fee, the proceeds go to Lola's Rescue. Winner gets a small prize.

Garden Invasion

Garden owners pay a fee for the removal of a decoration invasion that you sneak in during the night. These could be Plastic Flocking Flamingos or Garden Gnomes. Increase earnings by allowing people to buy insurance against having an invasion, and/or an extra fee to have the invasion go to a specific person's garden after leaving theirs! Proceeds go to Lola's Rescue.
