4 Who We Are As you raise funds for The Children s Institute, you become an ambassador of our organization, and as such, you should know exactly who we are and what we do. Below are some fast facts to help you promote The Children s Institute as you raise money. Established in 1902, The Children s Institute is an independent, nonprofit, licensed organization in Pittsburgh dedicated to promoting the well-being of children, young people and their families and to providing services that meet their special needs. This year, nearly 6,000 children came through our doors. Over the past decade alone we have provided more than $40 million in free and uncompensated care.

5 How your fundraising will help our amazing kids We aren t able to achieve our mission without the help of amazing donors and organizers like you. As you begin to plan your event, you have a choice to make how do you want your donation to be designated? You may choose to raise funds for any part of The Children s Institute, or you may decide to dedicate the donations to where they are needed most. Give the gift of care, even when families can t afford it: Hands down, our greatest area of need is charity care. In the past decade, The Children's Institute has provided more than $40 mililon in uncompensated care, accomplished with the support of generous individuals, businesses, and foundations. That support allows us to carry out our mission of imporving the quality of life for children, young people, and their families. Your gift can help us to continue. Make an Amazing Wish come true: If you are looking to donate to a specific item, the Amazing Wish List is an excellent choice. The list includes items not typically funded through a department s regular budget such as equipment, staff development and training and items for children. Wishes vary from $100 to $5,000. One hundred percent of your donation will go towards the purchase of the wish item of your choice. If the final cost of an item is less than the amount contributed, any remaining funds will be dedicated to complementary needs or, if not possible, released into the general fund. For a complete and current list of Amazing Wish List items, visit 5
6 How your fundraising will help our amazing kids continued Every donation of every size can make an amazing difference. Giving unrestricted donations opens a world of possibilities. Here are just a few examples of how every level of donation may be used*: $100 could purchase six months of therapeutic toys for our Functional Feeding Program $250 could provide six weeks of support for families during the adoption process $500 could give one day of respite to a single parent who cares for a medically fragile child $1,000 could take a large group of our students on a community education outing $2,500 could enroll three children in our Camp Success for three weeks in the summer $5,000 could buy two communication devices *These examples are approximations and may be subject to change, as costs often fluctuate and needs vary. 6

Step 2: Complete and sign the Fundraising Registration Agreement attached in this kit and mail it back to us. Step 3: We will send you a Fundraising Event Confirmation to let you know that we have received your request and if we approve your fundraising activity. Step 7: If any donors require receipts, record their details on the attached Donor Receipt Form and send it back to us together with the funds raised. We will mail tax letters to each individual. Step 8: We will recognize your fundraising achievements with an acknowledgement letter and by listing your event in our annual report. It s that simple! All of your raised funds will then contribute directly to providing services for children and adults with special needs and their families. Step 4: Get ready to fundraise by enlisting support and publicizing your event. Step 5: Host your event.

8 We Can Help! Once your fundraising event or activity has been approved, there are many ways we may be able to assist you. Items that we can provide: The Children s Institute material and resources that you can use, such as collection container labels, teddy bear donation cut-outs and an event flyer template Approval to use our logo on authorized material Tax letters to donors A thank you certificate once your fundraiser is finished to acknowledge your support Here are just a few examples of activities that imaginative donors have organized in the past. Be creative. The only limit is your imagination! Dance Marathon: Charge a registration fee and encourage participants to get sponsors. Laps for Love: Secure sponsors to pay a set amount for each lap you make around a track or gym room. Dodgeball Tournament: Collect a registration fee from teams and sell tickets. You can earn extra money by having a concession stand! Set Your Feet Up for a Day: Raffle off tickets for a chance to sit in a recliner and watch movies for an entire class period. Teddy Bear Campaign: Sell and make a creative display to show off The Children s Institute s Teddy Bear donation cut-outs.

For more ideas, please download a copy of 101 Fundraiser Ideas to Benefit The Children s Institute by visiting Please note that we are not able to provide the following: Funds or reimbursement for any expenses Contact lists for you to use in promoting your event (The Children s Institute does not sell, trade or forward mailing lists) Staff to run the event, though you can request a staff person to be there as a representative Applications for permits, licenses or insurances required (these are the responsibility of the organizer) Prizes, auction or raffle items 8
9 Use of The Children s Institute name and logo Let everyone know who you are supporting! We just ask that you adhere to a few guidelines first. Use of The Children s Institute name and logo cannot be used in any way without permission from The Children s Institute. If you wish to use any items with our logo in your fundraising activity, please discuss this with us first to ensure you are working within our guidelines. Please do not use variations of our name, such as The Institute. When naming your event, please note that our organization s name is not to be used as part of the event name, as this would indicate that the event is being hosted by The Children s Institute. However, we encourage the use of our name to indicate that funds will support the organization. The following are some examples of acceptable name use: Acceptable Field Day, proudly supporting The Children s Institute Fun Run, with net proceeds to The Children s Institute $2 from every sale will go to The Children s Institute Not Acceptable The Children s Institute Field Day The Children s Institute Fun Run The Children s Institute Silent Auction 9
10 Use of The Children s Institute name and logo continued The Children s Institute logo, address and phone number should be prominently placed on all advertising pieces so that those being solicited will know that the event/ solicitation is being held for The Children s Institute. Somewhere on the promotion materials, the charitable registration number and phrase must also be displayed as follows (it can be in small print at the bottom): The official registration and financial information of The Children s Institute may be obtained from the Pennsylvania Department of State by calling toll free within Pennsylvania Registration does not imply endorsement. The Children s Institute of Pittsburgh is a 501 (c)(3) organization effective May 28, Organizers are not permitted to manufacture, sell or license any goods bearing the name or logo of The Children s Institute, otherwise known as unofficial merchandise, unless you are given written consent. 10
11 Media and Publicity There are many ways to get the word out about your event or activity. Here are a few suggestions to consider: Post flyers: Many businesses, like coffee shops, have community bulletin boards Create a website: It s fast and easy and there are tons of resources available Social media: Create an event listing on Facebook or MySpace, or tweet about it to all of your contacts! To be sure you get the best coverage for your event, please first speak to our media contact, Erica Tony, at or elt@the-institute.org before contacting media outlets. The Children s Institute may help organize publicity on your behalf; however, due to staffing restrictions, at least six weeks prior notice is requested. If you are approached by the media for further information, please call The Children s Institute immediately before proceeding. This will allow us to provide them with experts who may be able to answer their potentially complicated questions about our organization or how the money will be used. 11
12 Money Matters As the organizer, it is your responsibility to ensure appropriate financial management of your fundraising event. Here are some guidelines to help you. Collecting and sending your funds: Once your event or activity has been completed, please fill in the Fundraiser Results Summary Form in this kit and send it back to us with the funds raised. You also will need to send the Donor Receipt Form if you need us to send any receipts to donors. Please send these within 14 days of your fundraising event/activity s conclusion. You can collect funds in the form of cash, checks or money orders. In order to protect your donors, checks should not be deposited into a personal checking account. Doing so could jeopardize their tax deductibility and open event supporters to unintended tax penalties. Please direct checks or money orders to: The Children s Institute Institutional Advancement Department 1405 Shady Avenue Pittsburgh, PA Donor receipts: If any donors need receipts, you must collect their contact information on the Donor Receipt Form included in this kit and provide this to The Children s Institute at the end of your fundraiser. We will then organize and send an acknowledgement letter with specific tax language direct to each donor. Please note the price of participating in a raffle or similar drawing cannot be deducted as a charitable donation, as classified by the Internal Revenue Service. Please make sure that all checks and money orders are made payable to The Children s Institute. Anyone wanting to make a credit card donation would need to contact The Children s Institute directly either by phone at or make a secure donation on our Website When collecting cash, please do not send the cash donations by mail, as there is a risk that it will not reach us. You may choose to send a check, deliver the donation in person or call to arrange a pick-up with the Development staff. The Children s Institute will then send you an acknowledgement letter to show that the funds have been received. 12
13 Your responsibilities as a fundraiser It is your responsibility as the organizer to ensure appropriate financial management of your fundraising event. Here are some guidelines to help you: The fundraising activity should only proceed once the Fundraising Activity Registration Agreement is submitted to and approved by The Children s Institute. The organizer must comply with all applicable laws. The organizer is responsible for ensuring the safety of the event, including organizing appropriate liability insurance and providing first aid and security services, if required. The organizer agrees to release The Children s Institute to the fullest extent permissible under law for all claims and demands of any kind associated with the event, and indemnify The Children s Institute for all liability or costs that may arise in respect to any damage, loss or injury occurring to any person in any way associated with the event. We reserve our right to terminate our support for the fundraising activity/event at any time if it appears that there is a likelihood of the organizer failing to meet any of the above responsibilities. Organizers must request approval for the use of our name on any communications and cannot under any circumstances use our photos or logo without permission. The organizer holds all funds raised from the public on behalf of The Children s Institute until the fundraiser is completed. They will need to make sure that full records of income and expenses are made and that these are sent to The Children s Institute within 14 days of the event unless other arrangements have been made. 13
