How do I host a fundraising event?
I am on the board of our local YMCA and on our fundraising committee, and although I’m not sure how much you’re looking to raise, I do think that this might be one possibility.

It won’t cost you anything, and takes less than a minute…and when you’re done, we’ve just made a dollar.
