The calendar can provide some great inspiration when looking for fundraising ideas for your group. The changing seasons, holidays and other calendar related events can create good opportunities for fundraisers that can be repeated year after year. The momentum from a fundraiser that is held every year can be a real boost to your bottom line.
Make sure you're not duplicating the efforts of another group in your area before you proceed with planning your own seasonal fundraiser.
Here's a starting point to get you going. Don't be afraid to modify or improvise using these ideas.
