Fundraising for Foodies – Host a cupcake decorating party


Today’s post discusses converting cupcake decorating into an engaging fundraising event.

Ride the cupcake craze

Who doesn’t love a good cupcake? Ride the cupcake craze and bring your friends together for a fun night of fundraising. As an RSVP, your friends and family will need to make a donation to your fundraising page. Before the event arrives, make sure you have the necessary cupcake decorating supplies. You will need:

  • Batter
  • Frosting
  • Sprinkles
  • Oven mitts
  • Baking trays
  • Food coloring

 

Once you’ve gathered the above, you’re ready to have your cupcake decorating party!

Don’t forget to take photos of the beautifully decorated cupcakes and post them to your FirstGiving fundraising page afterwards to inspire other friends who couldn’t attend to donate. Just because the event has passed, doesn’t mean the donations should stop. This idea can work for any food fad your friends are looking to replicate, from cake pops to pie in a jar. Whatever your heart and sweet tooth desires.

As a fun suggestion, host a contest on your fundraising page for the best cupcakes at the party. People can vote and make donations in the name of the best cupcakes.

May the best cupcake win!
