Hits for SMA. Work with a local baseball team and get businesses to
sponsor a player and make a donation based on the type of hit. $5 for
a single, $10 for double, $15 for a triple and $25 for a home run, and
$50 for a grandslam. Base the $ amount on the community size and the
size of businesses. Donations will certainly add up throughout the
year. Everyone wins, FSMAC gets exposure and donations, businesses
gets free advertising, team gets credit for helping community. This
fundraiser could apply to any major sporting team like hockey (Goals
for SMA), basketball (Hoops for SMA), soccer (Goals for SMA), etc. |
