PAINT A SCARF FUNDRAISING
Have fun. Raise funds.
Attract high-income women to your next gala
Every non-profit in town is chasing the same group of donors to attend their fundraising events. How do you get women excited to attend your gala?
Bring Paint a Scarf to your event. Advertise silk painting as a pre-auction activity to attract more high-income women to your gala.
Depending on the number of painters, your non-profit can earn up to 60% of the revenue generated by each scarf.
It’s a creative way to raise funds that can operate in concert with silent and outcry auctions.
Silk painting is a big draw
Silk painting sells itself. Here’s how one organization promoted scarf painting to its attendees:
“Get to the auction early and you’ll have a chance to paint your very own silk scarf. The professionals at Paint a Scarf make silk painting, easy, fun and foolproof. For a suggested donation of $XX you can create a scarf to take home. Paint a Scarf provides everything you need. Choose from four designs. Train and paint in about 45 minutes – and then enjoy dinner and bidding while your scarf dries.”
Church fundraisers
Here’s a new twist on the mission fundraiser: offer silk scarf painting + a meal for a suggested donation of $50 to $75.
Promote a silk painting event at your church. Get key women to commit early – and ask them to recruit 4 more painters each. Before you know it you’ll have a church full of happy painters, raising money for your mission cause.
