Fundraiser or Benefit???

So...for a while now I have wanted to do some sort of fundraiser or benefit for Alopecia in my area. No one around here with Alopecia speaks freely of it, therefore so many people have no idea what it is. I want to raise awareness and money.

I don't know what to do though. I don't have thousands of dollars to spend and I could really use some helpful tips and ideas. Anyone that can help me try to set something like this up, all comments are welcome. I've started small with cans and stuff, but I want to do something that would raise more money.

I have some people that have even offered free entertainment, well my boyfriend is a magician, a dance school offered some solos, a barbershop quartet offered some songs and whatnot.

Please help...

Hey Kaitlyn
Wow, there is soooooo much you could do! There are often a lot of activities at local parks and in malls. You could even do a silent auction if you can manage to get some things donated (many companies are good at helping with that) and have the entertainment going on during. If you could even get something on the street/sidewalk downtown that would be amazing!! Get help too, big events need a lot of work!!! Good luck! :)
