How to Fundraise With a Jewelry Party

Planning a fundraiser can be stressful if you have trouble deciding on a theme. You want to use a fresh concept that has not been done time and time again. A great idea is to organize a jewelry party in order to raise funds for your organization.

Instructions

1. Decide on the size of your fundraising event. Before you enter the planning phase, you will need to know if you are going to host a few select people or advertise the event on a large scale.

2. Choose the venue. You can either hold the jewelry party at your home or perhaps use your organization's headquarters.

3. Contact a jewelry supplier. Lia Sophia Jewelry and Kaya Jewelry Design are two companies that can help you get all the equipment that you need to sell the jewelry at the fundraising event.

4. Set up the party. Include refreshments and games in order to encourage guests to stay and buy. Keep the sample jewelry displayed at all times and pass around the pieces as you describe them. Let the guests know how much the organization appreciates their purchases.

5. Take the orders. Keep everything organized as you handle the money and the order sheets. Bring smaller bills and coins along in order to make change.

Tips & Warnings

• Make sure that you work out in advance with the jewelry supplier the amount that your organization will receive based on your sales.

• You should wait a couple of days before you send in your final order. Someone may contact you to let you know that they want to make an additional purchase.
