Dance Fundraiser
You always remember the excitement of going to your first high school dance? Girls in the outfits they’d been planning for weeks. Boys slathered in Dad’s aftershave! To organise a good school dance is reasonably straightforward. You do need a good team of helpers however and support from the school to pull off this fundraiser successfully.
1. Choose a theme
After picking a good theme use it to help you plan designs for any tickets, posters flyers and decorations. You may be able to get the school art department to help here.
2. Decide on the venue
Many schools will have a hall or gym that can be used. A marquee in the school grounds is another possibility. Alternatively you might wish to hire a village hall or social club. Sometimes you can strike a deal with a local venue or night-club to host your party. The advantage of this is that you have use of their facilities but it generally eats into your profits.
3. Arrange the music
For young children you may get away with a boom box / cd player. For older kids and teenagers however you almost certainly need a DJ. This can be expensive. You might be able to negotiate a reduced fee for a mid week booking. The advantage of using a professional is that they will probably have all the lights and other effects to really get your party going.
Some schools may have a budding DJ amongst their pupils. Some schools will also have pupils playing in bands etc. If any of these school bands are of a good enough standard perhaps a half hour slot can add to the evening.
It is important to remember that your dance needs to be reasonably credible and cool.
4. Tickets
Selling tickets for your fundraiser can usually be left up to the school. Its generally easy enough to get a couple of responsible adults to organize this.
