Hilton Harriers – clever fund raising
A friend and client of mine spends some of his spare time doing a fantastic job helping run a junior football team – Hilton Harriers.
He recently emailed me about a great way they are raising some money for a new kit:
Our local football team, Hilton Harriers, is looking for kit sponsors. It would cost £1k for shirts and jackets etc but due to the credit crunch I decided it was unfair to ask companies for big money. So, what we are doing is asking 40 companies for just £25. They will then put in a raffle and first prize is sponsorship of the team for 2 years, second prize is an advertising board at our ground for 2 years.
So, 2 years advertising for £25? 1 in 20 chance of winning!
This is a great idea and I am sure Paul would welcome some more contributions! Fund raising is really important for teams and organisations like the Harriers, and I would be interested to know if you had heard of any other good ways of doing this. Let us all know in the comments please!
