Brainstorm and ask yourself the following questions:

  • What type of event do I want to host?
  • How will I make this event stand out from others?

  • Do I need a permit?

​Get help from family and friends and assign tasks. Develop realistic fundraising goals. Develop a budget based on your fundraising goals. Set the date and place of the event. Call Peel Children’s Aid Foundation to register your event. Gather volunteers to work the event.
