Help raise funds for
your group and meet some new people while doing so. Host a
Bachelor/Bachelorette Auction. This fundraiser is appropriate for adult
groups. Volunteer yourself
and your friends to be auctioned off to the highest bidder for a night
on the town. Find some local celebrities willing to participate to
generate interest in the auction. Local restaurants, coffee
shops, bars, and activity places (i.e. miniature golf, bowling alleys,
etc.) might be able to donate gift certificates for the dates.
Package the bachelor/bachelorette with the gift certificates based on
their interests. This will let potential bidders know something about
the people up for auction and help the date go more smoothly if it is
planned.
Find a location to host the auction and an auctioneer to run
the show. Hand out lists of the available bachelors/bachelorettes with
a bio and date planned before the auction starts. It should be the
responsibility of the bachelor/bachelorette and winner to decide on
what date and time works for them.
