Fundraising Ideas

Get creative and make a difference by organizing a fundraiser for First Light! Whether it’s hosting a supply drive, planning an event, or coming up with your own unique idea, your efforts can provide vital support for our shelter and the women and children we serve.

Host a Community Yard Sale

Gather gently used items from friends, neighbors, or coworkers and organize a community yard sale to benefit First Light. You can host the sale in your neighborhood, at a local church, or community center. Spread the word through flyers and social media, and donate the proceeds to help provide shelter and resources for homeless women and children.

Organize a Themed Dinner Party

Plan a themed dinner party and ask guests to contribute to First Light instead of bringing a dish or gift. Whether it’s a cultural cuisine night, a costume dinner, or a potluck, this is a fun way to bring people together while raising funds for a great cause. Share stories about First Light’s mission during the event to inspire more support.

Start a Birthday Fundraiser

Turn your birthday celebration into an opportunity to give back by asking friends and family to donate to First Light instead of giving gifts. Share your fundraiser on social media and explain why First Light’s work is important to you. This thoughtful gesture can make a big impact and spread awareness of the shelter’s mission.
