Put together a press release featuring the most newsworthy aspect of your pancake breakfast. Usually, that would be the human interest story describing why you are raising the funds and specifically how they will help the person or group the fundraiser is benefiting.

Distribute your press release well ahead of your event to all the media outlets in your market. It helps to include newsworthy photographs of the intended recipient or a previous year's event. Always focus on telling a story that will be interesting to a newspaper's readers, a tv station's viewers, or a radio station's listeners.

Why Are Entrepreneurs Reluctant to Ask for Help?
Each year, there are many businesses that close their doors unnecessarily because they simply did not seek help soon enough. The statistics are startling and yet consistent in good times and bad: 7 out of 10 new businesses in the United States will fail within the first year of operation and generally only a 10% chance of surviving five years.

usinesses for items that will attract lots of bidding. To increase donations, offer each business plenty of publicity at your event.

Place silent auction items on tables where customers will line up to be served. Have wall signs highlighting the silent auction process and ask patrons to bid generously. Include a full description of each item in large type and be sure to have enough lines on your bid forms for at least twenty bids.

Verbally encourage each customer to bid on something and make sure that each item has at least a starting bid on it before the crowd forms and things get hectic.

Conduct a raffle Pancake breakfasts are a great place to sell raffle tickets. If you offer it right next to your payment table, close to half of your customers will buy a raffle ticket that's reasonably priced and has a large prize.

If you can't get a good enough prize donated, then run a 50/50 raffle. That's where the holder of the winning ticket gets half of the ticket revenue and the other half goes to the fundraiser.

Ask for donations Place a large open-mouthed jug or bucket next to the cash register and prominently label it as the place for donations. Even if people only donate change from paying for their pancakes, you'll raise a considerable amount.

Attaching a note saying 'Every Little Bit Helps' and 'Make Checks Payable To' is another great way to stimulate donations. With some groups, donations exceed ticket revenue!

Sell advertising If you are using paper placemats for your pancake breakfast, you can sell advertising space on them to local businesses. This works especially well when your event is an annual affair and draws a substantial crowd.
