2015-03-11 06:19:03 PM brycegray ASK FOR DONATIONS! Here is a guide to follow to write your own material donation request:http://www.janegoodall.ca/documents/Letter-Request-Donations.pdf
2015-03-11 06:19:23 PM brycegray Remember... see if asking for donations is OK with your organization before you send these letters out!
2015-03-11 06:19:38 PM brycegray After you have requested a donation of material, such as craft supplies, you can research a craft to make by material used:http://familycrafts.about.com/od/craftsbyproduct/
2015-03-11 06:20:05 PM marym Do you fine asking for donations works? I live in a very small town
2015-03-11 06:20:13 PM brycegray I send the above letters out to my local craft stores and get all types of material donated! Random material, but nonetheless... FREE material
2015-03-11 06:21:05 PM brycegray I have even asked local bakeries for their day old bakery to substitute food in activities. The bakery gets a cut-back for the donation
2015-03-11 06:21:33 PM brycegray Has anyone else been successful with donations?
2015-03-11 06:22:13 PM christinacochran I have not
2015-03-11 06:22:24 PM mboyd I've never tried this. Every now and then we receive games or beads and knick knacks for jewelry making. But seeking out donations myself no.
2015-03-11 06:22:25 PM ericapond not not yet just getting started though inerested in learning more on this

2015-03-11 06:23:46 PM brycegray With the letters, I usually hand deliever the letter and have a conversation. I then pass the letter on with the information. I always try to make a personal connection (in person or on phone).

2015-03-11 06:38:04 PM brycegray The cheapest way to make a calendar is through a Word Document or Publisher document. Generate a general calendar and then add your information. Publisher is better for adding graphics to your calendar
2015-03-11 06:38:14 PM brycegray Cheapest way means FREE
2015-03-11 06:38:36 PM mboyd Publisher also has the templates it kind of gets you started
