Has your organization tried out a creative fundraising method, large or small?  Submit your idea to Fundraising Outside the Box!  I'll share the best ideas online and at Dayton Metro Library FUNd programs.  You might even win a mystery prize. 

To get the creative juices flowing, here's a few unusual fundraising methods:

• Donation Meters for the Homeless - In Orlando, San Francisco and Denver
• Loose change that adds up to $1100 - A surprise gift to the Salvation Army in Cincinnati
• Most humorous: The COW PIE PLOP CONTEST at Dayton's own Learning Tree Farm.  To see it in person, take the family to Autumn Fest on October 9.
