Mike’s account is fairly typical of a Pink Flamingo Fundraiser.  Holding any type of fundraiser for the first time may seem intimidating but the rewards of a Flamingo Fundraiser are worth it. Placing Pink Flamingos on someone’s lawn and getting a donation to remove them may seem like a whacky and crazy way to raise money but it works. Those who select this method of fundraising also have a lot more fun than selling candy bars or washing cars.  From the stories we hear, the people who are the recipients or “victims” of a flocking generally get a big kick out of seeing a flock of smiling Pink Flamingos spread out in their front yard, and they are more than willing to suggest other friends or acquaintances who might benefit from the same experience.

In addition, Pink Flamingos do not eat much, are easy to care for and can be used year after year. Although some of the Pink Flamingos may “fly off,” they are easy to replace. Having an annual event can become a good source of funds, especially when you consider there are plenty of prospective Flockees who could benefit from a good flocking and a good laugh.

Here is a second fundraising method that we have seen work extremely well. Have a contest with a prize.  Purchase 45 or more unpainted “Economingos” and sell them for $10 to $25, or for as much as you think people will pay, to individuals of your group or church, fellow employees or school class. Each contestant will then paint and dress up their flamingo or flamingos to some agreed-upon theme.  Ideas include tropical, Christmas, Halloween, or whatever theme the group decides on. On the appointed day or evening, when everyone has gathered together, have a vote to decide who has the best-dressed flamingo.  The prize is then awarded to the person whose flamingo has garnered the most votes. The prize could be a donated gift, or service from a business or individual, or even a portion of the sales.  Once the contest is over, the flamingos can be placed up for auction and all the proceeds used for the charity or cause.

Economingos are only sold by ThePinkFlamingoSite and are one of the best values because they are not painted, giving folks a chance to decorate them in any way the choose.
