Fundraising (Companies who would donate prizes)?

Question

I'm about organize and event for the local Hospice in my area. (Sunderland, Newcastle, Gateshead, Durham) and know of some organisation who will donate prizes for a raffle, but as i've conatcted them before i wanted to know if anyone else had some different companies who would give to a good cause.

Answer 1

Yes every business you can think of. Another source is other community organizations.  Ask them for a gift basket. Ex.  Bird basket, filled with bird house, food, book, binoculars.

Stationery Basket filled with paper, pens, dictionary, envelopes, stamps. You get the idea.  

You will have better results if you hand the shopkeepers a flyer with the charity's name and ID number. Also a contact person's name and phone number

Answer 2

For a school fundraising day recently we contacted every business in the area, tesco gave a £50 gift card and other companies also donated. Your best bet is to contact everyone you can and that increases your chances of getting prizes.

Answer 3

try them again, but just try any local organsiations and shops.  You may get vouchers or hampers.  Good luck.
