Exemple de collecte de fonds locale:
Seafood festival

Résumé

The Associacão dos Moradores da Tapera e Miringaba (Residents Association of Tapera and Miringaba) organised two seafood festivals with raffles to raise funds for their work and improve their visibility within the community. The associates raised more than they expected and there was a huge gain in terms of visibility.
Other organisations, both public and private, are now aware of the existence of the association.
A welcome side effect is that, after this first joint campaign, the associates' participation in day-to-day activities has increased.

Conseils et leçons apprises

The greatest challenge was to prove to the associates that it is possible to change the local reality by your own efforts. At first they were very reluctant, as they did not believe they could achieve so much, especially in terms of local fundraising. Now they have the firm intention to repeat the experience.

Remarques Wilde Ganzen

This is an inspiring example for other associations that are reluctant to engage in fundraising. It proves that together you can make a creative and realistic plan that really works, which in turn will give a boost to the participation of the associates.

Résultats

Description des travaux préparatoires

The first step was a meeting with the community to brainstorm.
Tasks were given to different working groups, one for the seafood festival and one for the raffles.

Description de la mise en œuvre

Some people were responsible for the collection of donations for the seafood festival. Most of what was needed was donated by the fishermen themselves.
For the raffles the group received donations in kind: a bunch of bananas, free-range hen and crabs.
