• You can also ask for donations during registration

Sponsorship
• Sponsors love to expose their name through advertising, and will pay to do this
• Sponsors tend to donate things in order to get their name out there
• This will eliminate costs, especially if you are running a fundraising event
• Event Manager allows you to add a sponsor banner on your homepage as well as create a dedicated sponsor page for your event

Paraphernalia
• Selling paraphernalia for your organization is a good fundraising tool
• It tends to be fairly cheap, and if you can get your sponsors involved by advertising their logo, it is even better
• Examples would be: t-shirts, hats, stickers, posters, etc.
• Compete-At’s Event Manager software allows you to create an online store

Online Fundraising• You can set up a fundraising campaign with
your members by asking them for donations
• This can be done by adding fundraising options in your Event Manager store
• People like to be able to donate money easily with a credit card. If it is simple to donate they will be more willing to give money
• Inform donors what they will be getting in return for donating money

Charity Events• Fundraising is essential if you are dealing with a
charity
• Not only are you raising funds for yourself, but you are also raising money for the other organization
• The aforementioned tactics and fundraising ideas can help when you are benefiting another group besides your own
• Asking for donations in addition to registration fees and requiring a minimum donation will help to increase resources
