HELPFUL FUNDRAISING TIPS:

In our continuing efforts to support the community that we serve, we invite you to host a fundraiser at our restaurant. When your friends, family, and associates dine in or takeout at Carolinas we will donate 20% of the event sales to your organization.

Here are a few helpful tips for planning a successful event:

• Schedule events early. Although a minimum two week notice is required to schedule an event, you can schedule your fundraiser up to 3 months in advance
• Schedule events often. You may schedule one fundraiser every 30 days. The more events you host the more money your organization can earn. 
• Get the word out. Distribute your official event flyer to family and friends in person, through email and using social media.  Promote the event on bulletin boards and marquees.
• Alert the press. Contact local newspapers and media who might share information on charitable events.
• Encourage your guests to bring family and friends by inviting your guest to bring one more person you can double your donation total
• Encourage takeout and catering orders. You can receive fundraising credit for take out delivery and catering orders.  Invite those who can’t attend your event to take advantage to this option. 
• Send a reminder.  A few days before your fundraiser, remind your family and friends of the event.  Hearing your voice will motivate them to attend.
