Fundraising can be a pain point for many pregnancy centers, as we know funding your center has its challenges. We want to give you all the fundraising pointers for seasonal events, campaigns, and other fundraising opportunities to get your partners and future partners involved.
With the right tools and strategy, there are so many pro-lifers waiting to find the right opportunity to support you. Here are some fun fundraising ideas for your pregnancy center to start implementing a fresh way to connect with your current donors and catch the attention of new donors!
Laugh for Life Comedy Event
Book your pregnancy center event calendar for a fun and light-hearted night for the whole family with a “Laugh for Life” comedy event.
Invite a comedian of your center’s choice and get people in the building. It’s an evening dedicated to spreading laughter and supporting a great cause. A night of comedy is a great way to bring your community together while building awareness for your center and making a positive impact through fundraising.
Topgolf Fundraiser
Who doesn’t like Topgolf and a little friendly competition? A Topgolf fundraiser is a great way to engage with your donors and raise funds, especially with the younger generation.
Hosting a Topgolf fundraising event is a fun way for people to enjoy themselves in the golf bays and donate funds to your campaign. Topgolf is a game anyone can play, so non-golfers and beginners are welcome too!
Silent Auction
A silent auction is a very versatile fundraising option for all types of pregnancy centers. You can add silent auctions to in-person, virtual, or hybrid events and reach your current and potential new donors.
Many are not major donors when it comes to a silent auction, so it’s essential to include different pricing options when planning your auction table. Choose items and activities to reach those who love sports, music, travel, and more.
Facebook Ad Campaign
A Facebook ad campaign is a great modern way to raise money! These campaigns are unique because they can target a specific demographic online, email list, and more. You can also test ads to see what works and what doesn’t.
At Choose Life, our digital strategists can create advertising copy and graphics that reflect your donor campaign goals.
Baby Bottle Campaign
Last but not least, try doing an annual Baby Bottle Campaign. This fundraising tool has been used for many years in the pro-life movement and can be very effective. A Baby Bottle Campaign offers a fun opportunity for individuals, families, churches, and organizations to support your pregnancy center and the mission of life.
Simply distribute bottles, have participants take them home, and fill them with loose change, dollar bills, and checks (and online giving). Collect the bottles at the end of the campaign (which often lasts a month). This is a great opportunity to build partnerships with local churches, asking them to distribute the bottles, set goals, and encourage their church families to participate.
FundEasy has a great software program for this type of fundraising campaign! FundEasy offers online, customizable fundraising event software that helps streamline your event planning process.
