FUNDRAISING IDEAS

Adoption Fundraising

adoption fundraisersHaving a baby is one of the greatest joys in the world. Unfortunately not everyone is able to give birth to a little one. Luckily, adoption has become more common than it was many years ago. It has also become incredibly expensive. There is insurance and health care assistance for people that are giving birth, but no such help for people that go through the rigors and expense of adoption. A typical adoption can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $50,000, and that is just in fees, not in any consideration a family might choose to give the birth mother such as prenatal care or housing, or other expenses. None of these costs are covered by insurance or any other type of fund, unless one works for a company that has adoption assistance, which is not common.

Are you relatives, friends or colleagues with someone that is facing these costs? Why not help them with a fundraiser that sends 100% of the funds collected to their adoption fund? Phoneraiser is one of the most ecologically friendly fundraiser around, and the best part is that 100% of the funds go to your cause. There is no overhead, and we even pay for the shipping of the phones to our location. All you have to do is collect the phones and stick them in an envelope and send to us. We will send you a check and you can present that to your colleague, friend or relative as one more gesture of your support for the financial and emotional turmoil that they are sure to be facing at this most important time in their lives.

Phoneraiser is not only a great way to support your family, friends and relatives, but you will be doing good deeds on many levels. By using Phoneraiser, you will be helping the environment, as well as those less fortunate than many of us. Remember to spread the word of your fundraiser (but only if the recipients want to share that they are trying to adopt), and in doing so you will likely open many doors that you were not even aware existed. Get the local ladies groups involved and use your social and business networks to collect used cell phones/PDAs and inkjet cartridges.

But most importantly, by showing your support and helping with a fundraiser for those that you know that are adopting, you are most likely helping them to achieve a lifelong dream. Doesn’t that feel awesome?
