School is undoubtedly an exciting yet hectic time in one’s life. While it may seem to be sometimes draining, student life is the most memorable time that anyone goes through in their lives. But with so many assignments and exams, what makes it interesting is the events that happen.
The events, the teamwork, and the memories created during these events remain forever. But what comes as a challenge is the fundraising part. Not all ideas raise funds, and the ones that do, have to be exceptionally well.
How can you execute Hollywood Breakfast Fundraiser In School?
One way to have some great fundraiser ideas is to make sure that the concept is not just exciting but also new and gives people an experience they’ll remember for a lifetime. While there might be a lot of exciting ideas, one idea is to have a Hollywood breakfast. Unlike regular day breakfasts, the idea is to have a buffet with the most delicious breakfast items from around the world, curated by the students.
The execution can be in two different ways- a-la-carte and buffet. Those who wish to have their breakfast as per choice can go for it, and the ones who fear missing out on anything can go for the buffet. The joiners can then be charged based on their choices. The final plan can be executed with a touch of Hollywood, where they get served by their favorite Hollywood celebrities, which the organizers will cosplay.
The Hollywood part can be modified, with either the servers cosplaying Hollywood characters or sitting down with the attendees. The decor can be aligned with a Hollywood theme; thus, the setup looks like it’s a part of Hollywood. The food, on the other hand, comes from around the world.
The setup could also have a section from movies. Where a popular dish from a particular film is served, so the audience knows the relevance. This simple yet fashionable idea can be a big hit, not just for the kids but the parents who happen to visit.
Since food and movies are both things everyone loves, the chances of people not choosing to visit are significantly less. But it is always wise to market your event well, not just before the event but also on the day of the event.
Marketing:
The event’s marketing can be tricky if you don’t happen to do it properly. While your marketing element should give an idea to the audience, you should keep all of your cards private. The idea is to attract foodies and people who love movies. The message should be loud and clear but not reveal everything about the event. The primary focus should be to market an experience rather than just movies and food.
The primary profit would come from the buffet. Hence that’s one part that would require special attention. The focus would be to sell as many buffets pass as possible. The buffet categories can also be divided based on continents and taste buds. For example, you could have a sweet tooth category that focuses on sweets from around the world or a spice hub category for people who love spicy food.
Also, it would help if you started promoting your event at least two weeks prior, so you have ample time to sell early bird passes too. This would give you an edge on your strategies and allow you to decide your budget and make the necessary arrangements.
Props required to execute the event:
- Lots and lots of movie posters
- List of famous dishes from movies
- Dining arrangements
- Costumes for the cosplaying team
- Stalls for serving
Budgeting:
The budget solely depends on the size of the event. The bigger the event, the bigger has to be the budget. However, the people who set up stalls can be charged for it, and all a-la-carte items get sold by them directly. For all buffet items, all the stalls get paid a part of the number of passes sold. The profit becomes the fund to be raised.
