Pink Flamingo Flocking Fundraisers Are Successful and Fun
A Pink Flamingo Fundraiser is very scalable so it will work for any size fundraising group, from 1 person to 500 people.
There are many large charities relying on Flamingo Fundraisers for their charitable revenue such as the Susan G.
Komen Breast Cancer Fund and the American Cancer Society.
Having a Flamingo Fundraiser is a very cost-effective method of raising money for a particular charity.
The organization holding the fundraiser need only purchase a small number of birds to begin their fundraising efforts, and can quickly add birds to their fundraising flock as more people become involved.
Plastic Pink Flamingos are very durable and can easily last for years and years making it possible not only for the fundraiser to become an annual event, but by allowing the organization to amortize the cost of the birds over many years.
Another factor is that there are many free methods on some of the better websites to help you create buzz about your fundraising event.
These same websites also offer how-to advice on fundraising, Flocking Insurance and You've Been Flocked signs to help you get started.
Just search "pink flamingo flocking fundraiser" or any combination thereof and several websites will pop up with all the information you need to help you have a successful fundraiser.
Countless news stories about Church Youth Groups, Boy Scouts of America, Girl Scouts of America, High School Booster Clubs, College Sororities etc.
, throwing this type of fundraiser are justification that they work.
Summer is the busiest season of all and sales of flamingos skyrocket during this time.
You can purchase flamingos on the Internet and at stores such as Home Depot, Ace Hardware, Walgreens and Target.
You will even notice the Flashy Pink Flamingo showing up in some of the finer garden centers around town.
A relatively new phenomena, Flamingo rentals, is sprouting up across much of the United States.
For a buck or two per bird, plus shipping, renting the birds for a one-time event solves the financial stress of outright purchase and storing of inventory.
For a first-timer thinking about having a Pink Flamingo Flocking Fundraiser, this may be the way to go.
I surmise that within a short amount of time, the small mom-and-pop outlets will start specializing in renting flamingos for birthdays, special events and parties.
In addition, these rental companies may take over the actual flocking duties of charitable organizations.
This makes perfect sense as the small shops already carry the inventory and have the know-how and manpower to make the event run smoothly.
My advice is not to be intimidated if your group has never held one of these events.
It's easy and it's fun and it's a great way to raise funds for your charity.
] So stop talkin' and start flockin'!
