Fund Raising


The C.S. Landre Foundation has been blessed with individuals willing to step forward and find financial ways to help at-risk youth and young adults. The benefits in local, regional and national fund-raising efforts have been well received and appreciated.

INDIVIDUALS & FAMILIES

We constantly work with individuals to help promote the needs of our students. There are many opportunities available through the Foundation to raise needed funds. Our grass-root effort with individuals and families wishing to make a difference is top-priority with the Foundation. Please contact the Foundation if you wish to consider helping with a fund-raiser or ideas that might be effective in raising funds.

SUPPORT GROUPS & ASSOCIATIONS

It is important that groups of individuals and families working together to make a difference. Across the United States support groups of individuals with similar concerns have banded together for the larger common cause. Events and activities vary but get the message out. The more people involved create excitement and interest in the effort.

Outside associations, organizations and businesses have worked together on internal and external fund-raisers. Association members have formed pledge drives and challenged others in their group to match or exceed their support. Businesses have created internal support through internal requests and challenges.

COMPANIES & SMALL BUSINESSES

There have been many different techniques used in companies and small businesses. A common approach is in matching funds contributed by an employee or member. Ask your company if the company supports matching fund contributions to non-profits. The United Ways organization has the Foundation listed in many regions. Ask your human relations specialist on the procedures to include the Foundation in their giving pledge assignments.

In many companies the employees create a competition or task-sharing project to create funds. Management in most companies appreciates team building and spirit building projects.

The C.S. Landre Foundation has brochures and information available for this purpose.

NATIONAL & REGIONAL BUSINESSES AND ORGANIZATIONS

Several nationally known businesses established fund-raising projects designed for public awareness, community service and identification purposes. We have been fortunate to work with franchises, operators and regional management of organizations in this area.

Large companies are always looking for important causes – saving children’s lives certainly rates in the top priorities. Employees of large corporations have the ability to get connection through the human relations departments or management. Several times a simple letter to the President of the corporation has developed into a tremendous opportunity.



Please contact the C.S. Landre Foundation for important information and guidance on fund-raising projects. Though your heart is in the right place sometimes we can review an idea and offer suggestions.
