Host a Fundraiser
Whether you are an individual, a member of a club, or a company, there are many ways for everyone to help raise funds for FACE’s lifesaving programs.*
Here are some of our most popular types of fundraisers:
Online Fundraiser
You can easily set up a fundraiser on Facebook to help support FACE’s lifesaving programs. To get started, go to our fundraising page on Facebook and click on “raise money.” From there you can set up your own campaign. This is a great idea if you want to donate your birthday or raise funds in honor of someone special to you.
Restaurant Give-Back Nights
Organizing a restaurant give-back night is an easy way to help FACE raise funds. There are many local and chain restaurants that donate a percentage of their sales to charities on designated give-back nights. For example, FACE recently teamed up with Oggi’s Del Mar for a month-long giveback fundraiser – every person who brings in a FACE flyer will have 10% of their bill automatically donated to FACE. Other stores like Chipotle, Panera, and California Pizza Kitchen also offer give-back nights for charities. For a comprehensive list of companies that hold give-back night fundraisers, click here: https://www.groupraise.com/
Yappy Hour Fundraiser
Much like a restaurant give-back night, there are many local restaurants, breweries, and bars that host pet-friendly fundraising nights. Ask your local watering hole if they’d be interested in hosting a yappy hour at their location!
Paint Nights
Paint nights are a great way to have fun while raising funds for FACE. Simply request to host a paint night fundraiser to benefit FACE, invite your friends and family, and then a portion of the proceeds will be donated back to FACE. There are many paint night companies around San Diego, including Paint Nite and Painting and Vino.
Holiday Party
Holding a holiday party in honor of a nonprofit is a great way to celebrate during the season of giving! Whether you are hosting a party for your family and friends, or if your company has an annual holiday event, it’s easy to add a fundraising component to any holiday get-together.
For example, in place of regular presents, you can request a donation to FACE, or sell “tickets” to your party for a predetermined donation amount that will be given back to FACE.
Alternately, you can add a shopping component to your party and sell holiday-themed items. Check out Maranda’s Howliday in a Bottle party for an example of how you can celebrate the holidays while raising funds for pets in need.
Silent/Live Auction
Silent and live auctions can be extremely successful in raising funds for charity. These types of events are great for clubs and companies that have the resources to plan and organize large-scale fundraisers. For example, La Jolla Veterinary Hospital hosts its annual Paws & Pints fundraiser, which benefits FACE Foundation and other local nonprofit groups.
Other ideas for hosting a fundraiser:
-
- Fashion show
- Art show
- Estate sale
- 5k walk/run
- Church or school fundraiser
- Halloween costume contest
- Bingo night
- Bake sale/lemonade stand (great for school-aged kids)
*Please note FACE approval is required before you start to plan a fundraiser. For more information about hosting a fundraiser in honor of FACE, please refer to our Third Party Event Guidelines.
