How can I host a benefit event for the IRC?

There are a variety of fundraisers you can host to raise money in support of the IRC’s work around the world. There are endless possibilities, so have fun and be creative! Consider what event might be right for your community and audience. Some ideas include but are not limited to:

  • A casual buffet, pizza party, or formal dinner
  • A breakfast or tea
  • A benefit concert
  • An art show
  • A talent or fashion show
  • A play
  • A comedy night
  • A garage/yard sale

You can raise money by requesting that guests bring a donation equal to the cost of their meal, charge for tickets, or sell items even online to then donate the proceeds to the IRC.
