Hi Kimber-

For our Fundraiser we have grand prize baskets which we sell for $10 per ticket these are for items that are worth $300 or more and we have regular baskets ranging in value from $75 to $200 and these are sold 25 tickets for $50. This year we had less people attend but it was around 220 woman.

We did sell some presale grandprize tickets to non-attendees weeks before the event.

I hope this helps!

We received so many ideas and donations from this board I will compile a list real soon.

Thanks,
Theresa

We also get a signed puck from the NJ devils and tickets to the Nets and NY Liberty. Somerset Patriots will donate tickets as well. No luck with NY Yankees, Mets, Knicks or Rangers.

Thanks,

to alleykitty:

The NY Giants always give a poster with a laser signature. I get a poster frame for a few bucks and it is always a big hit.

The Jets, and the Islanders also donate items.

To SQD66 - We had out Fundraiser 3/19 just when the IPAD 2 came out and we decided to buy one and we made over $5000 in raffle tix for this item alone

For the TV we made $1800 and X-box kinect we made $1100 -

Good Luck to you!!

I just found this website accidently yesterday. I decided to try Keurig....got a response first thing this morning. We will be receiving a coffee maker and K cups. wow cant believe so fast.
Also applied to the NY Giants and the Phila Eagles for memorabilia. Anyone have luck with them?
I submitted an application to Air Tran for a couple tickets out of Philly. Seems that is hit or miss...

Does anyone have any advice for the central jersey area?

Our event is June 5th
