Fundraising Ideas
We've assembled a few ideas to spark your personal movement to end hunger and poverty:
Be Creative
Encourage your hobby club to produce a special fundraiser for Heifer – knitting all night for a knitters basket, selling sunflowers to buy an Ark, or selling bracelets for 10 flocks of chicks.
Family
Rally all your relatives and extended family to join a Team Heifer Holiday Fundraiser. You might be surprised at what a difference your family can make when you work as a team to end hunger and poverty.
Birthdays
Use Team Heifer to help make birthdays more meaningful. In lieu of presents, ask for Heifer gifts. You can also raise money for your favorite celebrity’s birthday.
Memorials
Provide a legacy for your loved ones to be remembered in a unique way while supporting a great cause. Set up a webpage to honor your loved ones in lieu of traditional gifts.
Civic Groups
Your community organization can inspire others to make a difference in the world with a Heifer fundraiser. Invite a guest speaker, host a party or organize a fun activity to raise funds for a big goal of purchasing a Water Buffalo or a Gift of Women’s Empowerment.
Office and Co-Workers
Use Team Heifer as an office team builder to raise money together around the holidays or a special date. Create friendly competition among departments for a larger event.
Educational
Get your children or teachers involved in Heifer’s Read to Feed Program. Raise awareness and dollars by hosting a dinner party, inviting an educational speaker to talk about poverty and hunger, watching a Heifer video, or organizing a book club.
Sports
Fundraise by running a marathon, hiking a mountain, walking for water buffalos, golfing for goats, or donating softball tournament registration fees.
Faith Communities
Raise funds to bring hope and peace to others. Encourage your small group, synagogue, congregation, or other faith based group to have a Pie Supper, Fill the Ark, Rummage Sale, A Fair Share Meal, Living Gift Market, or other activity.
Weddings
Already have enough toasters, picture frames, and blenders? Ask for the gift that keeps on giving. Have your family and friends contribute to your wedding by donating animals to families in need. Visit our Gift Registry.
