All about walkathons

How do you go about creating a charity event like a fund-raising walk or something like that?



i have very limited resources to work with to create this said charity event, but it really means a lot to me. are there really cheap ways to do this? or do i need to save up a lot of money?

how would you advertise an event like this?

and how would you go about getting sponsors?

and where could i design a sticker?

    Organizing a fundraising event does not have to be expensive, especially if you have a volunteer base that can help you. Go here to find out how to organize your event, expand on your event to make more money, and how to get people to participate:

    http://www.fundraiserhelp.com

    You'll have to spend some time looking around the website to answer all your questions, but pay special attention to information about walk-a-thons, dance-a-thons,publicity,donors, and location. Even though you want to do a walk-a-thon, information about charity runs, golf tournaments and so on will help you learn how to put it together.

    As for your stickers, you could design your own using clip art and such, or if it needs to be more elaborate than that, go to your local community college and see a graphics design class would be interested.

    Good Luck.
