Fundraising Website Help?

[Tyler Girton]

I know I have already asked this, but I didn't get an answer.

I am attempting to do a fundraiser for my school's prom committee, but I do not know which of these three fundraising websites that I should use. I want a website that yields the most potential profit, yet is a credible and reliable website. My three options are:

DMI Fundraising
The Goodies Factory
Tom-Wat Fundraising

Please, if any of you have had any experience with these websites, can tell me a little about these websites, have any tips for discovering the credibility of these websites (outside of looking at their testimonies or googling their credibility, I have already done that), and/or can help me with making my decision, please answer.

Sorry for the length of this answer, but I think it has a couple of positive suggestions and you can start for Free! Keep reading! It's not a sales pitch. Just advice.

I have no opinion on whether to use the sites you mentioned above, since I have never used them. I noticed in your question, "... my school's prom committee", which gives me the impression that you're either a student, teacher or grand/parent?

Assuming you're involved with a school, meaning students, going to a prom, 17-19 yr old's, which leads me to Facebook.

This age group 14 - 19yr. old's, check in on Facebook, 4 to 6 times per day! Facebook is free. Advertising cost. YOU don't need paid advertising. Assuming, you're not going to Australia for the prom?

Get a couple of your students or someone on the committee (If it's a teacher, make sure he or she is cool with the students, has the time and commitment to engage with the students and in the way they like to be communicated to. Tip: Have a well liked, not necessarily the most popular, but "LIKED" student that has many friends on her Facebook page, join your committee.

Don't only push the Fundraiser! Just have fun with it. Be yourself... Well, if you can't be yourself, be funny. Search funny cartoons on Yahoo, Bing and Google Image search and start from there.

Good luck... Have fun with it. More Fans, the More Funds $.
P.S. Don't forget to get authorizations/permissions if you're thinking about using the school's name. Don't make it a Fundraiser, to GET YOU OUT OF JAIL!

I recommend two free websites where you can make an appeal for funds #1 is your local http://OmaAds.com then just set up a paypal account where they can donate the funds! I hope that helps...
