Non profit fundraising?

Question

I'm on a board of directors for a non-profit mental health organization, and am having a tough time coming up with good fundraising ideas. We've done a comedy night, golf tourney, penny drive, pasta nights, and volley ball tourneys (we can't do a haunted house thing for holloween this year). Is there anything you have done, seen done, or thought of that would be awesome? Thanks in advance :)

Answer 1

bake sale , garage sale , that's all i can think of

Answer 2

Look at http://www.fundraising-ideas.org/DIY/ind...

Answer 3

A "direct mail campaign" will bring in a surprising amount of $$ for very little effort.

Answer 4

a kissing booth is my personal favourite

why cant you do a haunted house ... i think you could make light of it considering the type of org ... would certainly gte attention

people need to laugh too who are affected by mental illness, it is after all the best medicine no?
