Silly Sweepstakes

This is a great fundraiser to have during a dinner fundraiser. For the silly sweepstakes, give everyone a raffle ticket. Brainstorm a list of silly things for the “winners” to do. Start with things that are simple such as wear a silly hat through dinner or pass the rolls to the table farthest from you. More embarrassing ideas are sing a silly song (provide lyrics) or prepare plates at the buffet for everyone at your table after taking orders like a waiter. Provide a monetary value to each task from $1 to $10. The twist on this sweepstakes is that everyone has the opportunity to pay rather than perform the task that they have won. People with an adventurous spirit will be more than happy to participate. Others will gladly reach for their checkbook. “Winners” can be allowed to take a collection if they don’t have enough money. A silly sweepstakes will add tons of fun to your next fundraiser.
