WHAT IS A FUND-A-NEED CAMPAIGN?
Implementing a Fund-A-Need campaign at your next fundraising event is a relatively quick and easy way to boost overall profits - and something we highly recommend! Similar to a live auction, this is usually done by having attendees raise numbered paddles when they want to donate to support specific needs with a range of price points. There are several options for paddles on Amazon, and we've also seen a few DIY versions that have worked perfectly!

RAISE THE PADDLE = RAISE MORE MONEY
When folks know EXACTLY what their money is supporting, they are more likely to contribute to the cause. From new helmets for the football team to cases of toilet paper for a food pantry, we've seen TONS of specific covered with the Fund-A-Need process!

LEVEL UP
Create a variety of donation levels that reflect donors' giving abilities, such as $50, $100, $250, $500, and $1000. There is no limit to how many donors can contribute to each level, so be prepared to have several contributions to each level! When announcing levels, start with the highest amount and work your way to the lowest level. Trust us, it works!
