Do you want to organize a different baby shower? Perhaps the expectant mom really has everything she could already wish for her baby and would like to give something back for a cause or charity that is close to her heart. How about organizing a baby shower to raise money?
Doing a baby shower should always consist primarily of helping the expectant mother to celebrate the new baby that she will soon bring into the world; it’s about acknowledging your hard work during pregnancy and the hard work that you still have to do after the baby is born. arrives. Obviously, most of the time, the baby shower is an opportunity to bring gifts for the new baby or items that the new parents will really need, especially for those parents who are not financially comfortable. However, some baby showers will be organized for women when they already have at least one child, in which case they may already have most, if not all, of the baby outfits they need. Or, in fact, the expectant mother may realize that she is in a financial position to be able to buy what she needs comfortably, or simply that she realizes that she also has the opportunity to do something good for others at the same time. Whatever the reason, here are some great baby shower fundraiser ideas.
1. Host a charity baby shower tea party. Many charities already use this method of fundraising. The idea is that on a particular date ask people to host a tea party and ask guests to donate a small amount of money to attend. If the baby shower was to fall around one of these dates, you could tie in with the specific charity that advertises the event nationally. However, if not, perhaps you could ask the expectant mother which charity she would like to support the most. Make it clear in the invitations that you are asking for a charitable donation rather than bringing a gift, as the expectant mother already has everything she needs and would love to be able to give something to others while still being so. able to enjoy the company of his friends.
2. Incorporate a raffle into games. One of the best known games is a raffle in which guests can guess details such as the date the baby will be born, the baby’s weight, whether it will be a boy or a girl, etc. It is not uncommon for guests to pay a small amount, such as a pound, to enter the raffle. This is often called a “diaper fund” with the idea that new parents use the money to buy diapers for the baby. However, it could also be used as a charitable donation. Another game where this would work would be ‘guess the number of candy in the jar’ where guests would again donate a small amount to enter for a chance to win the candy jar.
3. For those future moms who are financially better off or just those who already have what they need, donating gifts to charities would be a great idea. Of course, you would have to make this clear in the invitations, as the guests may be offended if the well-chosen gift bought specifically for the new baby of the expectant mother were given away. However, if guests were told in advance that the expectant mom already had everything they might need and would love to be able to give some essentials to new parents who have very little, most guests will be happy to accommodate them. . The focus here would usually be on the essentials needed such as diapers, wipes, newborn clothes, blankets, muslin, etc.
