Hi there,

For the pub night, I would just suggest approaching your local pub and telling them you'd like to host a pub night at their bar.

Then ask what they'd be able to do to support you.
(For the most part, I am sure most pubs have done something like this before and probably have their own 'rules' set up).

I know Boston Pizza give 5-15% off every sale to you during the time of your event.
And sometimes I've heard the wait staff giving up their tips too.

Sometimes you can get pubs to create a signature drink and either 100% of the sales goes towards your event, or 50% of it.

It all depends on the pub/restaurant you approach.

But go in prepared to ask for donations from them, sales money etc. because the worst they'll say is no.

:)

I believe someone also posted a conversation they had with someone from the Office in regards to a pub night somewhere in this discussion board...so you might want to skim through to see if you can find it.


I am also hosting a raffle draw (prizes were donated) and a live auction for a couple of items.

You could also consider doing a 50/50 draw (and hope that the winners donates the money back to you). :D
