Cheerleaders and Cheer Coaches – Need funds? Here’s how!

Friday, May 29th, 2009

Raising money is a chronic challenge for cheerleaders.  Typical ways of raising cash is by selling things such as cookie dough, pizzas, T-shirts, and other items or by hosting car washes and so forth.  These methods can be time consuming and may not actually yield much in the way of funds. 

My friend, Kristy Hall, is an expert on fund-raising and she has developed some innovative ways of helping organizations raise money – fast! 

 For example, Kristy helped a non-profit organization called One Home Many Hopes raise over $40,000 in 30 days last fall!  I might add that this organization is small and entirely run by volunteers; they have no paid staff and had no budget. 

Kristy has produced a complimentary DVD of this successful process in which she describes the exact strategies One Home Many Hopes used to raise over $40,000 in 30 days.  

The DVD also describes: 

 >>How One Home Many Hopes Did This With No Budget, No Paid Staff & Virtually No Database

>>Specific Ways They Implemented the Strategies 

>>How Their Strategies Changed Over the 30 Days 

>>How They Got Their Team to Reach Out To Their Networks 

>>How They Kept Their Team Motivated & Focused for 30 Days 

>>Specific Tips You Can Immediately Implement With Your Team 

>>How Much Time Is Required to Raise $40k in 30 Days

>>The Step-by-Step Process I took One Home Many Hopes Through to Get Results 

>>5 Key Things One Home Many Hopes Did To Succeed – and How You Can Do Them Too! 

 Kristy is offering this DVD for FREE (you pay only shipping and handling) to anyone who would like one.

Fundraising a Big Challenge for Cheerleaders

Friday, November 7th, 2008

In my quest to meet cheer coaches and learn more about the sport, I have discovered that finding money to pay for everything from uniforms and equipment to camps and competitions is a huge challenge.

Some schools pay very little to their cheer teams (and coaches!) and so it’s up to the team to dream up ways to raise funds.

I have teamed up with an expert fundraiser to begin to address these problems.  This expert, who works exclusively with small non-profit organizations, met with me to record an information-packed interview that provides all sorts of tips on ways to raise money.

The interview will be available within the next week or so, so be sure to stay tuned!  In the meantime, feel free to post your questions about fund-raising and I’ll pass them on to get you answers!
