4 Ideas for a Successful Food/Funds Drive Dress Down Day- You may wear casual attire, if you bring in a certain number of food items Potluck Day- everyone brings a dish for lunch and in order to gain entrance you must bring a certain number of food items or pay an admission fee. Costume Theme Day- create a theme, for example, Mardi Gras or St. Patrick s Day Parade. If you bring in a certain number of food items or cash amount you may dress for that theme. Food Theme Day- challenge co-workers to bring in as many different food items as possible in a certain category. For example, food geared towards people with diabetes, or food for children in a particular age group. Whoever has the most different types of food within the category wins a prize. Lunch for the Hungry Day- everyone contributes what they would normally spend on lunch. Prize- have a prize for all employees who participate if your company wins their category or overall event. Totals- display daily totals in high-traffic areas or announce totals using s to keep people up to date and involved. Friendly Competition- conduct non-monetary waging and/or wars between law firms and/or firm sections. Rewards- have rewards for staff members who donate more than 20 cans or $100.
