Throwing For A Cause: Hosting a Cornhole Charity Event!
Hey Cornhole Crew! Today, we're talking about mixing our love for bag tossing with a bit of do-goodery – hosting a charity cornhole event! Get ready to put your tossing skills to work and raise some serious funds for a cause that matters.
PICK YOUR CAUSE:
Choose a cause close to your heart. Whether it's supporting a local charity, helping a neighbor in need, or contributing to a larger cause, make sure everyone knows what they're tossing bags for!
SETTING THE STAGE- THE VENUE:
First things first - choose a date and location. Scout your area for a great location. Could be a local park, community center, school, or even a spacious backyard. Make sure it's accessible, cozy, and has enough space for everyone to throw their bags. Check with your local town/county to see if any permits are needed for the event. If so, apply early!
RALLY THE TROOPS & SPREAD THE WORD:
Spread the word like a wildfire! Round up your friends, family, neighbors, and even that one cousin who's surprisingly good at Cornhole. Get them on board to join, support, and spread the word about your fundraiser & its cause. Blast social media, create funky posters, and contact local clubs. Get everyone buzzing about your event. The more, the merrier, right?
SPONSORS AND PRIZES:
Get in touch with local businesses, cornhole companies or generous souls for sponsorship or prize donations. Offer shoutouts or logo placements on event banners - everyone loves a little exposure! Prizes? These are going to draw in the crowd and get them throwing! Get creative with what you offer - could be a cash prize, a cornhole prize package with pro cornhole bags, cornhole backpack, and other swag donated to your event.
FOOD, DRINKS, MUSIC AND FUN:
Depending on your venue, they may be able to supply music, food, drinks, grills, etc. If not, you can contact local food trucks that may be willing to donate a portion of the revenue made at your event to the cause!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
Don't forget to shower appreciation on everyone who participates, donates, or lends a hand. A heartfelt 'thank you' goes a long way in making everyone feel valued and appreciated. If you had companies donate prizes or gear, tagging them in a photo on social media would be very much appreciated!
Hosting a cornhole charity event is about blending fun with generosity. Get ready to toss bags, make a difference, and create some fantastic memories! Remember, every bag tossed, and every dollar raised is a step towards making the world a better place. Let's throw some bags and spread some love - cornhole style!
