  This text is updated and extended to incorporate Organising Local Events (published by Directory of Social Change in 1995 - ISBN 1873860889). This edition now forms part of the DSC/CAF How to series. If you are short of ideas to raise money for your group or charity, this book should give you inspiration. It is aimed at people wanting to raise money in their local community, and is designed to help volunteers and first-timers in fundraising market. It not only gives a wealth of inspirational ideas, but also equips readers with the practical and legal knowledge to run the fundraising events for maximum success. The book is in three parts: Part 1 - choosing your event (including 100 ideas that work); Part 2 - planning; and Part 3 - on the day and afterwards. There are also appendices with useful publications and contact addresses. This book is primarily for non-professional fundraisers, such as PTAs, old people's clubs, village hall committees, local sports clubs or amateur theatres - and those volunteers who fundraise locally for hospices and national charities.
