Make sure that your booth is situated in a place where there is a high traffic of people coming through. This ensures you that people in your community will become aware of your fundraising endeavors. You also need to make sure that you have big signboards in your booth that help people identify that you are selling something for a fundraiser. You can also give out flyers and post ads on newspaper to help improve your publicity in your community.

These places provide a high traffic of people that would be very beneficial for your fundraising efforts. When people ask about your fundraising project, make sure to explain to them your goals and objectives first especially your beneficiaries so that you can easily encourage them to join your fundraising campaign. After that, show them what you will offering in exchange for their financial support. In this way, the process of selling your fundraising products will become easier and more effective.
