Breast Cancer Awareness Fundraisers

on 6/5/2007 at 10:38 am in Fundraising/Awareness for BC
It is so important to not only raise money for breast cancer but to also raise awareness. The more people who know about this disease and what they can do now to help, the more likely we are to find a cure in our lifetime.

A new member, recently asked about fundraising ideas to do at her school. Here are some ideas I found on the web:

- Host a house party, a tea party or a picnic

- Host a health and wellness day at your local workout or fitness club

- Find a retailer or restaurant owner in your area, who will donate a percentage of their sales to National Breast Cancer Foundation

- Host a walking or running event where teams can raise money together

- Host a yoga in the park event

- Host a fashion show, its not hard to get local retailers to donate clothes for a few hours for a good cause

- Try fun activities such as bowling, skating, dancing or an outing to a local sporting event

I have a question. If I wanted to help or start a fundraiser in my area, how do I go about doing it, and where are the funds sent or where do I send them. I am very interested in getting started, I just need the know-how. Can someone PLEASE help?

I think raising money for awareness and research is extremely important. Without funding for research we wouldn't have the options in treatments for breast cancer that we have today. We've come so far, but still have along way to go! I have a website with links to various direct sales companies. All money earned goes to breast cancerawareness/research causes.

I have purchased handmade notecards, calendars and other products to support breast cancer research, development and awareness. Every little bit helps.
