Donations and organizations- Eradicating Poverty
Help a Child: Your donation will help provide critical support to children in poverty through nutrition, health and education programs, such as: Emergency Medical Fund: Offers critical medical care to children in need with serious injuries or illnesses, giving them access to support that can save lives. HOPE Fund: Provides HOPE (Helping Overcome Poverty through Education) scholarships for vocational training and college for qualified youth, as well as supplies, books and tuition to help support secondary school students.
Help a Family: Your donation will help us address some of the most pressing needs of impoverished families through family assistance programs like these: Lifeline Food Program: Helps struggling families provide adequate nutrition to their children, identifies and treats malnourishment, provides emergency food for families in the aftermath of disasters and supplies healthy meals for schoolchildren. Miracles on Hold: Helps us cover the costs of delivering products like medicine, clothing, books, shoes and more to families in need of immediate support.
Help a Community One of the most effective ways to help children in need is to improve the communities in which they live. These contributions will be used for the following large-scale community support programs: Community Center Campaign: Our community centers, medical and dental clinics, playgrounds and sports fields are built right in the communities we support. Skills Training: Provides job and life skills to sponsored youth through a variety of programs designed to help them build successful futures capable of helping lift entire communities out of poverty. Disaster Relief: Helps relieve the suffering of impoverished families with no place to turn when disasters strike the communities we serve. Clean Water Sources: Building clean water sources in impoverished communities is one of the surest ways to change lives dramatically. Access to clean water gives poor families the ability to live in more sanitary conditions, drink and cook without getting ill, and reach a greater level of dignity than before.
Host a street carnival: Get a bouncing castle onto the street complete rented with music or band. Allow people to play games for small amounts of money and charge an entry fee. This is a great joint event idea where many charities in your community can come together to all have different booths and raise money.
Organize a competition: Have a competition say sports or fashion. Members of public will pay to participate in voting or tasting foods or sampling fashion as they donate to the cause. Just be aware of local laws regarding competitions before you start, so you can make sure that your competition is legal!
Striking gold: Organize for members of a community to donate old items for cash. Auction the items on the spot for a small profit, or simply sell them in a huge rummage sale. You can also organize a community rummage sale where each participant keeps their profits, but pays a small fee to have a table. Organize a cooking face off: Allow people to show off their skills by paying to participate in a cooking competition. You can have both amateur and professional categories, so everyone can compete. Allow the public to participate by paying a small fee then tasting and voting, or have them vote with cash, and the cook with the most money at the end wins!
Do not ignore crowd funding: One big mistake people make is to ignore the power of social media. Create a portal where people can give toward a certain cause and promote it via twitter or Facebook for maximum impact. Register for this program on Secrets to a Successful Crowd Funding Campaign for an A-Z guide in accumulating monies for your course online through crowd funding websites. This will be a sure catapult into new levels of the campaign. Pump in the money: Organize volunteers at gas stations to wait on drivers. They should pump the gas, clean the windshield, and collect donation for the certain cause. You can also partner with local gas stations to offer car washes.
