| Having a Car Wash
is a
great fundraiser for your entire church family to participate in. They
work best during the spring, summer, and fall months when the weather is
warmer and everyone is eager to drive in a nice clean car! Being Organized:
Begin with a committee of 3 or 4 people to
organize your event. Each person on the committee will be in charge of
getting their own volunteers to do what ever job they are in charge of.
Your committee members jobs make consist of one getting all the supplies
needed. Another one my be in charge of organizing and getting snacks and
setting a bake table to go along with your car wash. Another one may be in
charge of providing live music or CD's to play and providing all the
advertisement and signs for the car wash, and another member may be
in charge of gathering up all the volunteers to wash the cars.
-Have plenty of small monies on hand for
change.
-Make sure weekly announcements are made
about the soup sale and perhaps posters made. If you are having this
event for a specific fund, then say so. "Soup Sale to Benefit New
Children's Choir Robes."
-Have someone very pleasant as your greeter
handling the tickets and/or money, and thanking each and every person who
came to your soup sale.
Being Well Prepared:
-Make sure you have PLENTY of soaps,
towels, and helping hands.
-Have the tables set the night before.
-Have the room decorated the night before.
-Make sure you have plenty of help in the
kitchen.
-Offer "Take out" for people who are busy
and can't stay in and eat. Have plenty of plastic containers with lids for
your take out. |
