Set Your Goals:
Determine the purpose of your fundraiser and set clear goals. Whether you’re raising funds for a charity, school, or community project, having a specific goal will help guide your planning.
Choose the Right Venue:
Select a venue that’s large enough to accommodate your guests and has the necessary facilities for cooking and serving food. Outdoor spaces like parks or community centers are ideal for BBQ fundraisers.
Plan Your Menu:
Work with our catering team to create a menu that appeals to a wide audience. Include BBQ favorites like brisket, ribs, pulled pork, and chicken, as well as a variety of sides and desserts.
Promote Your Event:
Use social media, flyers, and word-of-mouth to promote your fundraiser. Encourage people to spread the word and invite their friends and family.
Sell Tickets in Advance:
Selling tickets in advance helps you estimate the number of attendees and ensures you have enough food for everyone. Offer different ticket packages, such as family deals or VIP passes with additional perks.
Provide Entertainment:
Make your event fun and engaging with entertainment options like live music, games, or raffles. Activities like cornhole, face painting, or a silent auction can add to the enjoyment and help raise additional funds.
Coordinate Volunteers:
Recruit volunteers to help with setup, serving, and cleanup. Having a dedicated team of volunteers will ensure your event runs smoothly and efficiently.
