Evan,
Congratulations on the new group. One thing that you might do is to
reach out to a community group if there is one in your area.
But as to your questions.
First, have you checked with the school to see if they will provide any
funds. You might be considered a club and eligible for support from
student activity funds.
Second, have a raffle. Ok you're saying, what to raffle? Well, how
about some almost free items (after rebate)? I hit Office Max almost
every Sunday because they have one or many items that are free after
rebate. Things like 50 cd-r's, wrist rests, canned air, CD wallets,
etc. You might have to front a few bucks to buy the items initially,
but then after the rebate, the raffle will be all profit. OfficeMax is
really good about their rebates. if they don't come in a reasonable
time, just go to the store and they will give it to you.
Third, well it was my first, check for a community mac user group in
your area. They might have extra stuff to give you for your first
raffle.
Fourth, put out a bowl at your meetings. Even if the members just toss
in a buck apiece, that will soon build a nice kitty.
Good luck,
Alex Podressoff

Hi guys. I just recently started up the Mac Users Group on the
UW-Madison campus; we are about to have our second meeting next week.
My question to everyone is: what kind of ideas for gathering funds for
a MUG have people been successful with? This is a campus user group,
so I really don't want to charge a registration fee or anything like
that, but we're starting to realize that we'd like a small bit of cash
stashed away to buy prizes with, and to cover the cost of advertising,
stuff like that.
Thanks,
