Frequently Asked Questions
What are the first steps?
Locate a venue to hold your event. We suggest VFW, Elks or Legion Post halls, etc. that hold at least 150 people. They typically donate their rooms to non-profit organizations, and the drinks are inexpensive! The larger the room the better because the more tickets you can sell, the more money your fundraiser will make. Ask your committee members, friends and family which event halls they have connections with. Once you have selected a venue, we will confirm the date & time for your event.
What type of comedy shows do you provide?
Comedy For Cash Fundraising has a network of comedians to fit your specific needs. Our shows contain adult language and are recommended for audiences 18 years and older but we can accommodate a PG show by request. We also have comedy magicians on our roster if interested.
What groups or organizations can hold a comedy fundraiser?
Virtually any. If you’re fundraising for a local or national organization, raising money for a sports or cheer team, helping friends or neighbors pay for medical bills, holding a benefit for school associations or anything else that’s important to you – we can help you with a Comedy FUNdraiser.
How much time do I need to organize and promote a successful fundraiser?
We suggest a minimum of six weeks to plan your event. This will provide enough time to secure the venue, collect raffle items and sell tickets.
Does Comedy For Cash promote the event?
You will receive a dedicated webpage for your Comedy FUNdraiser on the Upcoming Events section of this website where people can purchase tickets, donate or sponsor your event. We will also create a Facebook Event for you and your committee to share, including a link to your event’s webpage. Adam will provide helpful tips & best practices to maximize your fundraising efforts that they have developed throughout their years of experience.
How do our guests receive their tickets?
Tickets are purchased online using this secure website and sent via email. People will have the option to print a PDF ticket or simply show it on their phone when they arrive. As the event coordinator, you will have access to a list of everyone who purchased tickets for your show in real time.
How does payment work?
A $300 deposit is required to confirm a Comedy For Cash FUNdraiser. This will activate your online ticketing webpage, as well as your event coordinator dashboard where you can track ticket sales & donations in real time. You will also receive our best practices for maximizing fundraising. That is your only out-of-pocket cost. The remaining balance will be deducted from ticket sales. You will receive a check with your ticket sales and donations following your show.
