The holiday season is about giving, sharing, and spreading joy. It's also a golden opportunity for fundraisers to make a significant impact on their causes. People are more inclined to help others during this time, making it an ideal moment for fundraising. Whether for a community center, school, charity, or any other cause, connecting your fundraiser with the spirit of giving can yield remarkable results.

Gift cards are versatile, widely appreciated and perfect for holiday events. With FundScrip’s gift card fundraising platform, your supporters’ gift card purchases can help the cause you’re fundraising for. Here's how you can seamlessly integrate gift card fundraising with your upcoming holiday festivities.

Identify Suitable Holiday Events

Choose the right event to host your fundraiser. Whether it's a winter carnival, a festive concert, or a holiday bazaar, ensure that the event aligns with your cause and resonates with your target audience.

Choose Relevant Gift Cards

Select gift cards that align with your audience's interests and the holiday event's theme. For instance, gift cards for bookstores, entertainment venues and popular coffee shops could be enticing prizes if you're organizing a school winter carnival. If you need additional inspiration, you may find some in FundScrip’s Holiday Gift Guide.

Offer Gift Cards as Prizes

Spice up your holiday event with gift card raffles and contests. Incorporate these cards as attractive prizes to motivate participation and enhance overall excitement. Everyone loves a chance to win something valuable, especially during the holidays.

Set Up a Fundraising Booth with Gift Cards

Set up a dedicated fundraising booth at your holiday event specifically for selling gift cards. Create an engaging display that showcases the variety of gift cards available. This provides attendees with a convenient gifting option and offers them a way to support your cause effortlessly.

Share a Post-Event Follow-Up

After the holiday event concludes, keep the momentum going. Promote your gift card fundraising campaign for those who couldn't attend the event. Utilize social media platforms, email newsletters and other forms of media to spread the word. The holiday spirit doesn't have to end when the event is over, and this extended promotion can yield additional funds for your cause.
