Brick Fundraising - Easy Fundraising that Keeps on Giving
Brick fundraising is an easy way to raise money for schools,
hospitals, religious institutions, non-profits, government
buildings, or any worthwhile project.
It's easy to start a brick fundraising project -
First decide the price of a personalized brick. People will
donate that amount to participate in a fundraising campaign that
contributes to a meaningful cause and enables them to
participate in a brick project that will last for years. Decades
from now, their children or grandchildren can point to that
brick and say "there's my family brick, there's my Grandfather
or Grandmother".
Participating in a brick fundraising project allows donors to
participate in a cause bigger than themselves, and to
permanently establish themselves as part of that group.
Many brick fundraising projects were started to raise funds,
then the group found lasting intangible benefits from the
enhanced commitment donors feel when they see a name on a brick
fundraising project. Memorials leave a moving tribute to those
whose names are inscribed.
As a high school principal pointed out regarding a 1992 brick
fundraising wall, people lose their annuals but the wall is
still there as a tangible reminder that they are part of the
community and were part of the school.
Brick fundraising projects can go on almost anywhere - on inside
or outside walls, sidewalks, entryways, corridors, foyers,
fountains, plazas, or raised earth surfaces. They leave a
moving, often functional memorial.
Since 1988, Brick Sculpture by Cannon has helped many brick
fundraising projects. Larry Cannon is a brick artist, who often
engraves 6 foot brick sculptures as centerpieces for brick
fundraising projects - providing moving public art that raises
needed funds.
