Unfortunately not every person living on this planet is lucky enough to have loads of cash and other important items when Christmas is near. These poor souls must rely upon holiday fundraiser ideas which are created by other human beings. It is great that many of the events are able to generate money for the less fortunate.



The smart individuals who are living in America will do certain things in order to raise money for themselves and others who are in need. Sometimes people will have a bake sale, adult spelling bee, night in jail contest, silent auction, gift wrapping contest, talent show, kissing booth or yard sell in order to obtain funds.



Georgia residents love to cook and prepare great food items each and every day of the year. When the holidays come around these creative individuals take the time to make some of the best pies, cakes, cookies and doughnuts that can be found. They all meet at city hall when everything is ready to be sold. Citizens who want to buy a sweet treat will stop in for a few moments and fill their stomach with all of the delightful items.



Every citizen within this Georgia town are fully aware that the money from this bake sale will be used for Christmas clothes and toys. One particular family living in Chicago had to face a real nightmare several years ago. They were unfortunate to lose all of their valuables in a fire. Since it was Christmas time the local town people decided to organize a talent show in order to help this family. Each individual entering the event gave five dollars in donation.



During the Christmas season a young child thought it would be fun if her parents and others would enter an adult spelling bee contest. The money raised would help every child who needed a Christmas toy. Each parent thought that this was a great idea since it was for such a good cause. The students all took the time to sell tickets to this event and it was quite amazing that they all sold out quickly. Every person had a great time at the event and many families could now afford to purchase their child a wonderful gift.



People who loved giving money to charity did not mind going to jail for one night. During this event every person would have a member of their family arrested and taken to jail. The unfortunate prisoner would have to wait a few hours before their loved one could bail them out. This event is strictly done for charity and all of the proceedings are given to the homeless shelters that are around.



Whenever people place furniture, jewelry, paintings and other items on display within a town hall they will more than likely be auctioned off. A silent auction is always an excellent way for people to raise money for others who really need financial assistance. Many shopping malls will also host gift wrapping contests in order to generate funds.



An organization called Toys For Tots were happy to receive the money from the gift wrapping event. Many girls love to help raise money for children whenever Christmas is near. They will sometimes host a kissing booth event on their college campus in order to obtain the cash.
