A street fair fundraiser is one of the best ways your organization can get people to come out and support your campaign. A town-wide social event can draw a crowd. Parents are always looking for places they can take their children and have fun.
There are a number of ways to raise money during a street fair fundraiser. Your group could organize games and contests and charge players a small fee. Games can be a good fundraiser because they generally involve a small outlay of cash and thus have high profit margins.
A street fair fundraiser oriented toward children may include an arts-and-crafts booth. For a set fee or donation, parents can pay for their children to be led through a project. The children’s work can then be displayed and passersby can be enlisted to vote on their favorite project. A contest can be held where the project with the most votes wins a prize. Clowns, balloon animals and face painting are additional attractions that are popular for children and easy and cheap for groups to organize.
For parents and other adults, your group’s street fair fundraiser might include live music and food vendors. Artisans or other vendors selling arts, crafts, food items or a host of other items may be invited to participate in the street fair fundraiser. Your group can charge vendors a fee for a table or tent.
There are numerous money-making activities that can be featured at a street fair fundraiser. Whatever your group decides to include, be sure to create a booth or display with information on your group’s cause or activity.
