Tired of getting the same donations, but not enough of what you really need? Looking for something that you can’t afford to buy? Many non-profit organizations suffer from a shortage of physical items, from enough children’s and baby clothes to office supplies, depending on the specific organization.
Try www.Freesale.com. Basically, it’s a local exchange program based on the idea that if you need one, you ask for one, have one, give it away. You never know what you might find, or who might have something that you can use.
If you have some spare cash and are looking to spend used, you can try craigslist.org. Craigslist is an online classifieds section, where you might just find a bargain price or even free to a good home.
Looking for money? What non profit isn’t. But most small non-profits skip the big boys when looking for grant money. However, what you may not know is that major corporations and chain stores allocate money for local donations. Many small nonprofit organizations forget that corporations such as McDonalds, Target, and Walmart have regional funds available.
Check online or inquire at their store. Don’t hesitate to ask a store manager to participate in your fund-raising project. You may be surprised at the outcome.
Next time when you shop look around the customer service area and you’ll see signs about how your favorite store pays back the community via fundraising, time donation, and other charitable measures. Imagine your charity on that poster!
