We are having a Benefit for 6 surviving children that lost their mom and 2 other siblings in a car accident.?

Question

What i need to know is how do i get the place to have this benefit within the next month. They are talking about insurance and all this other stuff that if we could afford we wouldn't need a benefit we would just give them the money. We have all kinds of donations of time and things to be raffled off, a couple of DJ's, a few bands and some comedians. Now we need food and such. All proceeds go to the children in the form of an account already set up but we really want to do this so the children can have a little fun b4 they have to go back to school. The accident occurred May 2, 2008. PLEASE I NEED SOME ANSWERS

Answer 1

You can use a site like http://www.MicroGiving.com to raise the funds for the insurance and room costs. Worth a shot :)

Answer 2

contact local halls,UAW ,,,VFW and such if they cant offer you there facility i am sure they will try to help find a place to have this event (maybe local Churches). start calling

as for food , do the same, call local grocery stores, bakeries.even some restaurants will help, it will just be a lot of phone talking.

if you talk to someone who cant help don't be afraid to ask them if they know of any place that will help

you can even send out flyers to  stores and restaurants asking for donations

good luck
