What does a Rhino Stampede have to do with year-end fundraising? At UpCycle Parts Shop, co-founder Nicole McGee led a fundraising campaign like no other—called the "Rhino Stampede". It wasn’t just creative; it was wildly successful, helping the organization raise the funds they needed to expand into a new space! 🦏 The theme? Their work helped divert enough materials from landfills to equal 13 full-grown rhinoceroses. Talk about impact! In this short video, Nicole shares how our Blueprint for Success gave Upcycle the structure they needed to: 🛠️ Create a clear, fun campaign theme. 💡 Build awareness and rally support from their community. 🎯 Hit their fundraising goals (and then some!).

THEY DON’T CARE! We all know the importance of the “Elevator Speech”. However, for a fundraiser, these are unique and we have found that most fundraisers do not use or create them correctly for fundraising. When you are attending a mixer, an event, or actually in an elevator and someone asks you what you (or your organization) do, don’t say, “I’m a Development Officer at Urban Help.” LTHEY DON’T CARE! Instead say, “I help feed over 1,000 hungry children here in Chattanooga.” They will reply, “James, that is amazing “. You ask, “Would you allow me 32 minutes next week to tell you how we help these special young people?” “Of course.” she answers. You suggest Wednesday at 10:00. For fundraisers, the elevator speech should do 3 things. 1. Get attention 2. Tell who you help not what you do 3. SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT (From the book, “Moves Management Fundraising”. Johnson.

Did You Know about Seattle Public Schools (SPS) Funding Model?  ❗ SPS doesn’t fully fund each individual school, it has a Tier method of funding.  ❗ The weighted funding model is based on Tier assignment which ensures low-income communities receive more funding, relies on PTAs to fill in known gaps in school budgets. ❗ A weighted funding model means that as your number goes up the community comes around the school to provide critical funding to bridge that gap for that school. PTA organizations have stepped in to fill this gap. Funds are raised on a YEARLY basis. If the funding is not met that year then the school will lose it the following year. There is not a cushion to carry us year to year. We had the the opportunity to create a quality video while helping raise crucial funds for a local public school. Check out the video here (and don't forget to support your local PTA!): https://lnkd.in/gMgSSTcz If you are part of a group trying to do something good, reach out to our team.
