Ideas for fundraising

If you are looking for ideas to pursue, for yourself or a fundraising group, then the secret weapon is a notebook and pen. Keep it with you at all times, in your pocket, on the bedside table, wherever you are have it within reach. You will need it to jot down those flashes of inspiration that come to you in your dreams or during breakfast or while you are in a boring meeting. You know the sort of thing, the inspirational thought which will increase the results of your efforts dramatically without you having to increase your efforts dramatically, like the £5/$5 lottery (i'll talk about that in a future message - check back, it'll be worth it).

You will want to divide your notebook into sections, current projects, future projects, potential projects, and random ideas. It is amazing how the ideas which aren't really suitable for one project are perfect for a different project.
