Pick a celebrity chef whose persona blends seamlessly with your campaign's mission. Make sure their values resonate with your cause. 2. Partner with a top restaurant (hotel restaurants work great!) and align on the vision. 3. Design a signature dish—every time someone orders it, a portion of the price is donated (think IDR 60k-85k per dish). Simple, yet powerful. 4. For those looking to elevate the experience, offer a second program—exclusive dining tables with beautiful decor for families. Pricing starts at IDR 650k for 4 pax, and guess what? It’s another way to give back. 5. Add the cherry on top by launching with a gala dinner, featuring the celebrity chef cooking live! Guests enjoy gourmet meals, and donations flow in. Pro tip: Want to keep it memorable? Place a 360 camera by the family tables to capture their dining experience—turn it into campaign content later! ✨ 𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐥à—𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬, 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐠𝐨! ✨ Got your own secret recipe for fundraising success?

Here's to a day filled with love, delicious food, and the company of those who mean the most. Happy Thanksgiving! #WeGrowSocialImpact #SocialImpact #ChangeMakers #PositiveChange #OrganizationalDevelopment #CapacityBuilding #NonprofitGrowth #SocialEnterprise #ImpactfulLeadership #CollaborativeGrowth #EmpowerNonprofits #GlobalImpact #NonprofitSupport #InnovateForChange #SustainableDevelopment #PurposeDriven #ImpactfulWork #InspireChange #MissionDriven #LeadershipForGood #FlexibilityInAction #TransformingCommunities #MeaningfulChange #NonprofitSuccess #GlobalGood #CommunityDevelopment #InnovationForImpact #NGOLeaders #StrengtheningNonprofits #ImpactMinded

Struggling with fundraising? The answer is a tin of baked beans. Plain, unseasoned haricot beans. Dull, flavourless, eaten by peasants for survival but nothing else. Stick ‘em in a sweet, rich tomato sauce...a feast fit for a King! 👑 Did you know that Heinz Baked Beans were sold as a luxury item in Fortnum & Mason when they first arrived in the UK in 1886? What I’m getting at is the importance of how you dress your fundraising ask. Beans will always be beans. But you can dress your beans with flavour to make the difference. So, what does adding flavour look like? Here are a few tips: 📖 Use stories. Countless studies have shown that people remember and respond to stories more than information. 🎯 Frame project details around impact. You’re not just running sports clubs for young people. You’re making physical activity accessible and fun, creating opportunities for new friendships, reducing isolation, reducing risk of obesity, health conditions, crime rates... ❌ Don’t over-do it. You don’t need Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans. You don’t even need any mini pork sausages. A simple sauce will suffice 😋 What else would you add to the fundraising recipe? 👇🏼 #charity #comms #fundraising

Best charity legacy pie recipe 2025: 1. Plan and prepare all the internal ingredients so they work together. 2. Dare to be different and test some new flavours to intrigue the taste buds. 3. Prepare a cooking plan to make sure you avoid a disaster 4. Agree "outers" of pie so that it looks really inviting. Crusty or soft? Are the potentially hungry those who like to savour taste over a long meal or just bite? Maybe some have dentures or no teeth! 5. Test a completed dish with family and gain (literally) feedback. 6. Agree best channels to promote your recipe to the right audience - online and offline: Alllegacyrecipes? BBC goodlegacy? Or piggyback on a celebrity chef de legacy? Or even publish a legacy cookbook? 7 Start laying the table and warming the plates so you are ready to receive guests and serve them on time. 8 Sit back and wait for reactions but do not believe all the results. More people like to complain than praise. 9 Start washing up and discover the sticky bits 9 Don't sit back and do nothing. Every recipe can get better and better so you make it YOUR OWN. #legacyfundraising #legacygiving #philanthropy #fundraising #donorlove #recipesforsuccess #legacies #plannedgiving #bequests #legacies2025 Happy legacy cooking in 2025 - I do! It is my other passion.

Fundraiser’s Dinner Etiquette Tip #4: Utensils You find yourself at dinner, but the place setting is much more complex than you are used to. You don’t want to make a bad impression on your dinner companions. Where do you start with all of the various utensils? Here are the main considerations to keep in mind: 🍽️Start on the outside, and work your way in. Utensils for the main course will be closest to the plate. 🍽️If soup is served, the spoon will be on the outermost right side, since it will be the first course of the meal. 🍽️ Dessert forks and spoons will be placed at the top of the place setting. 🍽️ Wine glasses will be arranged from right to left in the order that they will be used. The water glass will be the inmost glass, placed right above your knives.
