Need help naming a fund raiser. ? -
My dad has COPD and at the advice of his doctors he is needing a double lung transplant. This is very expensive. My mom has started baking and selling cakes to help earn money to go towards the transplant. Id like to help her name it but I cant think of anything. Anyone have any ideas., Thanks.|::::|Breathe for Life|::::|My husband has raised over $5000 doing kickball tournaments with the County Fire Departments. Each station organizes a team and they play against each other. Each person pays $10 and sometimes you can get their woman s auxiliary to help out to provide food and drinks. All the money goes to your Dad. If the fire departments don t work maybe there is something that your Dad s employer or local church could help arrange within their community. Another idea is to get a local restaurant to designate a specific day to contribute 10 or 20% of their sales to your Dad. Then advertise like crazy so tons of people eat there that day. Make it like a big party. I ve also seen people organize golf tournaments too. This might be a long shot and it will certainly take significant effort but I have seen these all work very well. Name Idea: Lungs for Life?|::::|Please remind your mom that any money raised is taxed as regular income since she is not a registered nonprofit. Why not contact a nonprofit and ask them to raise the funds needed.|::::|umm maybe something like Help The COPD In Need
