With busy schedules, everyone needs a calendar! This great playspace fundraiser will help all your donors keep their lives in order. Consider a theme such as children’s artwork, photos or playground drawings.
Prep Steps:
1. Decide on your calendar theme.
2. Collect the artwork or photos that highlight your theme.
3. Identify holidays, days off or other organization events including dates related to your playspace project.
4. Ask a local print shop or copy center to donate their printing or copying services. You can also easily do the job on your own using special calendar software, a scanner and high quality printer.
5. Create order forms for the calendars and advertising.
Materials Needed:
1. Cameras
2. Original artwork
3. Computer
Helpful Hints:
• Hold an art/photo contest. Have children or adults either take a photo or design a picture that coincides with your calendar’s theme. Wining entries are included in the calendar.
• Consider using children’s drawings. You could select twelve of the best drawings from Design Day, or assign each class a theme (like snowmen for January) and choose the best drawings.
• Sell your calendars around the holidays.
• Be creative! Calendars can come in any shape, size or color, but keep your budget in mind.
