First of all, sorry Mr Media if Im not allowed to ask this.

This is only an enquiry at the moment, just putting out feelers.
My friend who has 2 daughters has just phoned me saying she is now a PTA member and she has had a load of ideas to raise money for the school.
One of them being raffles.

My idea/question is, would any of you be willing to donate a piece of work complete with business card/contact details etc for them to sell?
It may generate some new sales.

I just realised how spammy that sounded, exactly the type of things Id delete from my inbox.

But anyhoo, Im aware that many of you are probably in the same situation wanting to raise money for your kids schools, but just thought Id ask.

Any feedback welcome.
Merci Buckets

I have spoken to a few PTA members recently from different schools and throughout the year they seem to hold ladies pampering evenings and shopping events. I'm going to have a stall at a few over the next couple of months. They ask stallholders for a small donation (around £5) and a raffle prize from you.

I guess that they'll make money from selling tea and cakes as well as holding a raffle, so an evening could be quite profitable for the PTA.

Just an idea for your friend to raise money and gain raffle prizes at the same time.
