Updates:

1 Our Bump Shop needs a little tlc. It has been opened since Spet 23rd and has earned us 181,050 gold. It desperately needs bumpers.

2 Some of our other shops are slowly getting off the ground.

3 All funds raised via the fundraising committee will be sent to the Fundraising Mule! We will keep track of what we have in the mule and send a weekly report to broken so she does not freak out. She in fact asked if I could make a fundraising mule for the committee.

Currently we have 1,146,845, with a few pending trades on the mule.

~~~
Welcome to fundraising. I was asked by broken to help with fundraising, and I will hopefully not let her down. As you can see, we have our forum, so what the heck do we do with it? I'm sure we could think of something.

I am not sure what funding we already have in the mule, and I will be setting up a fundraising account to put any donations into so that broken doesn't get a seizure dealing with everything.

As it is, our goal is to always aim high. So this year, since it's the 10th Annual Ball, I would love if we could raise 10 million gold/items. However, I would be truly blown away if we raised 12 million gold/items for the year 2012.

As to our fundraising ideas. We can currently do generalized ideas, but once the theme is released we can create theme specific ideas to sort of give the people who may attend the ball a sort of easter egg as to what the ball will be about.

Now, some of these ideas may require a lot of volunteers from many different degrees of people. I however, will love anyone who is devoted to this.

Anyways, welcome to fundraising, my fellow FUNDIES!

I know you have at least 750k in gold right now! I can tell you that much, so yay on being closer to the goal. Judging by the way funds were raised last year, i'm sure wecan reach the goal! I'll try to help out however I can when I can. Good luck!

I SHALL OFFER YOU MY BODY graphics skills. Hopefully they will be useful.

I think I donated about 700k to the last ball by setting up a graphics shop. And I only took orders for two months. x)

I think if I start earlier this time, I might be able to donate a lot more. c:

I sell art, and I am willing to put quests and other things on hold to donate. My art is cheap, though. BUT, I am willing to start or help assist any fundraising. I'm kind of a general laborer, but I'm really interested in fundraising.

I will give you as much as I can, though I've been spending money on stuff recently, so I don't have much DX.

I'd like to help as much as I can! Last year, I did an art auction, (but I don't think I can do that this year) so anything with art, I could be involved?

Kind of poor now, and my art is kind of... cheap... and I'm going to be low on time this year, but nevertheless I'm planning to do as much as I can!

All right.

We have 2 mill gold, wow that is wonderful. For a 10 mill goal, we have only 8 mill to go.

And I see that with what we have, we can do an art shop and a pixel shop and a graphics shop.

I know that a pixel minishop worked well the last few years, and I would really love to see one when we get into fundraising. We could do a central theme for the pixel shop or we could have it go along with the theme of the ball.

And an art shop/auction would go over well. I know a lot of people who love art.

Any other ideas would be welcome. I've known in the past that we have had booty grab social's where people booty grab for a few hours and donate half of what they grab to the Ball. That could be a very interesting thing to try and revive.

I would love to help in any way I can, though right now I'm completing a piece of art for an auction winner. I know I made a goal of giving at least half of the gold I have at the end of every month to the ball, though I'm not sure if I can keep it.

A good way to combine advertising and fundraising is Booty Grab, we could totally do something with BG. I'm working on making a mini monster tank as we speak.

I was heading up an art auction for the last ball, but we didn't get enough bids in time, so the profits will go to this ball. When all of the artists have completed their work, and the trades are finalized, there will be an extra 975k in the ball budget. biggrin

I think I can donate 1 million later, maybe 2 million. If Zodiac turns out to be the theme. I could donate a Western Zodiac,Some Zodiac Mood Bubbles,and maybe a Zodiacal,or Seracila Pendant.
