How to Start a Car Show FundraiserIn Feburary 2016 19,

Choose a theme for the car show. The focus can be on classic cars, low riders, luxury cars or creatively decorated cars.
Decide on a purpose for the car show---this is what draws people to the event. For example, a social service organization would host a car show to raise money for a community service project.
Organize a car show committee---this ensures that all the work of planning and executing the fundraiser isn't placed on one or two people. You should have the following: a chairman to provide direction for the planning of the car show; a treasurer that controls spending, plans a budget, and tracks the funds that are raised; a publicity chair or media organizer, who is responsible for getting the word out about the car show to local media and the community; a sponsorship coordinator, whose aim is to secure cash and in-kind sponsorships from local companies to keep the group's expenses to a minimum. Recruit volunteers to ensure the car show runs smoothly.
Plan a schedule of weekly meetings with your car show committee---invite all members of your organization to attend so that they can stay in the know and contribute ideas.
Secure a venue for the car show fundraiser. The sponsorship chair should try to find a venue to host the event for free or at a discount if at all possible.
Distribute entry information about the car show to local car clubs, car dealerships, college campuses and auto accessories stores---ask permission before posting or leaving fliers. Print out simple fliers with contact and entry information to keep your expenses low.
Launch an informational blog or website about the car show fundraiser so that entrants, potential sponsors and people interested in attending can find out the purpose, location and time information for the show easily.
Hold a meeting with your committee and volunteers at least two days before the car show to ensure everyone knows their roles, when to be at the venue and who to contact if they need any help during the show.

How to Host a FundraiserIn Feburary 2016 19,

Pick a theme. Before holding your event, choose a theme that will represent your cause. If you're raising money for an international adoption, bring in food and decor from that country. If you're trying to raise funds for a charity, come up with ideas that tie into your cause. Even the invitations or fliers should reflect the theme of your event.
Create a budget. Remember that you're trying to raise money, so you are going to have to work within a pretty tight budget. Ask vendors in your area if they would be willing to donate food, raffle prizes or other items for your fundraiser. Some may not have anything to donate but will give you money towards your cause.
Prepare a menu. Depending on your cause, you need to choose between a casual menu or a formal dinner. Some great fundraisers have featured a barbecue, while other successful events have included a 5-course meal. Since you are working within a limited budget, your menu will depend largely on what you can afford to spend. You can have an elegant meal on a small budget just by shopping around at warehouse grocery stores.
Plan the entertainment. You should have something planned besides just a dinner. One great way to raise even more money for your cause is to have a silent auction or even a public auction. You can ask local vendors to donate items to auction. You can also invite a band to play or have a talent show. Try to do something that ties into the evening's theme.
Present your cause. With all of your planning for the fundraiser, it's easy to forget why you are inviting these people here in the first place! Prepare a short presentation about your cause, showing everyone why you are desperate to raise funds and how they can help.
