I am hosting a charity event for Cardiac Care… It is called the “Red Dress Gala.” We are having a silent auction. I am having trouble getting our girls to get out into the public and get donations…. Do you have any ideas? Maybe a competition or something… Thank you for any ideas you might have.

Also, Any cute and cheap ideas for centerpieces…? There will be over 1000 people at this event so i cant just throw something together like id like. thank you!

Every six months we do something to thank our volunteers. We’ve put on a couple of ice cream socials. And we’ve also given away little trinkets (the last was an Angel Coin). Our budget only allows for about $250.00 - and there will be anywhere from 50 to 100 people attending - so it’s hard. The ice cream socials have worked well - but we were hoping to do something new. The next event will be in August - and we can either do it in a park - or in space at the church. Any suggestions? If you have hosted this kind of thing - what have you done?

Just another note that our church puts on a very fancy dinner/dance event for anybody who tithes regularly. So we’re not cheap when it comes to honoring folks. The volunteer recognition is new - and give aways have been more of a token of recognition.
and to James - and others…

we do not consider tithing 10%. It’s nice if you can - but the celebration is for anyone who “tithes regularly” - even if it’s just a dollar a week or something.
