Special Event Ideas: Fun(d) Drive for Communithon
Customer Appreciation Days, Races, Challenges, heme Days, Special Sales, Dime Drives, Hot Dog Days, Toonie or Loonie Competitions

Find a product you would like to promote. call it your Communithon "item". let everyone know that for each unit sold, you will donate something to Communithon.

Create a competition amongst your staff - or do some sales competitons, just make sure the public knows what you're doing so they can participate and contribute.

Tip jars - put a "tip jar" at your counter which creates a goal for reward. For example "staff room upgrade". If $X00 dollars is raised then the "boss" has to buy a new coffee maker/chair, or XXX for the staff room. Think up something fun!

Have a late day fee. Make a chart which tracks when staff arrives at work. Charge the last person (or 2) $5.00

Make sure to contact the United Way so we can help advertise your Fun(d) Raising event - and be sure to come to Communithon and present it live on TV.
