Thank you for this information. I’m putting together an elementary school raffle and new to the PTA. Our raffle tickets are $5/each.
The grand prize is $500 cash and 4 season passes to Disneyland. Each class created a silent auction basket, my daughter’s class did a coffee and chocolate lovers basket. To help motivate the kids to sell raffle tickets, I bought some Hawaiian themed bracelets. For every 5 tickets sold they get a bracelet and the student who sells the most tickets wins a Nintendo Switch.
This is small potatoes compared to what you do but the information still translates for the actual upcoming event.
Thank you!

I think that's a good idea! At my events, we tend to motivate *the buyers,* but at your event, motivating *the sellers* is the first step. To your point, it's a different event. When I was that age, I would have liked to have a bunch of colorful bracelets. After all, I think I was wearing safety pins with beads on my shoes so a bracelet would be a step up.

Neat idea, our committee needs all the help we can get. Al of our committee is comprised of undergraduate students hosting a silent auction with all proceeds benefitting high school organizations.

What does that lapel pin say?

[@SherryTruhlar]

Judi, I forced myself to rewatch this video, which was one of the first three videos I ever shot. It's painful to watch these early videos, but I will resist deleting it, because the content is solid and still stands.
The pin I showed the camera had the name of the nonprofit on it. (Food and Friends). Nothing unique; just the name of the nonprofit.

only problem is most people dont want to buy a 100 dollar raffle ticket. even if all 500 people bought a raffle ticket that would make 50k. that would never happen. the car would cost at least 30k-40k. and when your chances are 1/500 nobody wants to buy one lol

If you think this video is about selling 100 dollar raffle tickets for a car, you might wanna rethink about what other things youve missed in life.

[@lamarsaunders8650]

ughhh if ppl are already donating more than 100$ for various causes, then whats the difference.. they just get the opportunity to win a car is a bonus

[@lamarsaunders8650]

donating should never be about the prize, ppl need to stop selling the prize and sell the cause.. the prize is the bonus

[@chrisreynolds2410]

Sounds like you are around some broke folks.
