So….. What can your chapter cover? What can your Alumni cover? What can the students cover?

Ideas Can a student fundraise their dues? Can you charge a lab fee? Can you apply for grants? Do officers bring items for meetings? Can students bring items for community service hours? Can you partner with another group on campus?

Examples Career Development Event Alumni cover gas $ Team members pay $20 toward hotel Chapter covers chaperone and materials Banquet Sponsors Chapter pay for Awards, Decorations Alumni provide meal Students bring auction items

Examples State Convention Provide fundraising opportunities for event School pay for registration Alumni pay for food Chapter pay for part of room Student pay for part of the room

Pointers Dont break the bank. You cant cover everything Check other fundraisers on campus Dont overlap Dont steal someones fundraiser Check Rules! School Cafeteria Agreement # of fundraisers Partnerships
