Host a Fundraising Event

Individuals, groups, and companies host fundraising events in support of our hungry neighbors. By designating CFBNJ as your charity of choice, we can turn the funds you raise into nutritious meals.

From creating your fundraiser to registering your event, we want to make it as easy as possible with this step-by-step event toolkit for you to support CFBNJ. Set-up an online fundraising page to accompany your event.

Creative Fundraising Ideas

  • Sitting down for a meal together is the perfect reminder of why food matters in our communities. Whether it’s a neighborhood dinner party, happy hour, or an after-practice meal, organize an afternoon or evening for a shared meal and charge an entry fee. Ask your guests to bring healthy non-perishable food items to donate to CFBNJ so that your neighbors in need can also enjoy a nourishing meal with their loved ones.

  • Set up a raffle for the latest tech gadget or a gift card to a healthy grocery store. Make sure the prize is desirable to your target contestants (for example, a bookstore gift card for your book club or a lime tree for your fellow community gardeners). Depending on the prize or your preference, set an entry fee. Host it for a day and accompany it with an online fundraiser.

  • Grab your favorite and most delicious healthy recipes and get baking. You can find a variety of farmers and flea markets or events in your community to sell your food. Get a little sample tray with a sign saying that your proceeds or percentage of your proceeds will go to hunger and poverty-relief efforts at CFBNJ! Let buyers know that your $3 cupcakes will provide 9 meals to our hungry neighbors or your $6 heart-healthy burrito bowls will go towards supplying a family with 36 diapers.

  • Bring back childhood memories and set up a healthy, fresh, and cold lemonade (or other juice of your choice) stand on a hot summer’s day. Create large signs to let thirsty passersby know that you’ve not only got the best juice in town but that their money will be donated to neighbors in need.

  • Are there some items you need to get rid of? Host a yard sale, advertising it as a fundraising event for CFBNJ.

  • Host a fundraising event where the community can come together for a shared hobby with a participation entry fee. Whether it’s painting, cooking, or rock climbing, organize a day to simply enjoy a fun activity while raising the funds and necessities for our neighbors.
