The most unusual examples of charitable actions. Organization of charity events and actions How to organize a charity event

Examples charity events we meet almost every day and no longer seem to be something unusual. Many people try to provide gratuitous assistance to those who need it. We all know that support is needed for children with serious illnesses, the elderly and people in difficult life situations. Seeing the call to provide all possible assistance, few will turn away in bewilderment, because it is normal to lend a helping hand, it is inherent in human nature.

However, we know far from all categories of people who cannot do without outside help. Most often, their problems become commonplace, everyday, so familiar that somehow you don’t even think that this problem can be solved. In the meantime, these people are suffering every day. But what would happen if everyone's attention were drawn to their troubles? Perhaps then happy people or just people leading a normal human life, there would be much more people on Earth.

Unusual charity events just aimed at perplexing society with the problems of these needy. Such events arouse great interest and involvement of observers, but also require private organizers and charitable foundations to sometimes take extreme measures - to involve all the creativity in the actions, making them bright, unusual, non-trivial. The deeds of the volunteers participating in them could sometimes be listed in the Guinness Book of Records, they conquer so much with their heroism and selflessness.

Charity events in support of children

The most famous charity events in support of children with various oncological diseases or disabled children are held all over the world. These are marathons financial help children via SMS, numerous concerts, festivals, fairs and other events.

Charity events for children under this not always pass under the auspices of health. There are other groups of children who also need help. Unusual charitable events in support of them, organized by people who are not indifferent, do not receive much publicity, but they also evoke a sea of ​​vivid unforgettable emotions. There are few examples of such actions, but they are so unforgettable that it is simply impossible to pass them by.

Interactive exhibition "Help Mom Get Back!"

The state provides assistance to children left without parental care - no one can dispute this fact. But is this help really enough for orphans to live a full life, which is no different from the life of children from complete families - not everyone thought about this. The Volunteers to Help Orphans Charitable Foundation held an unusual charity event in Moscow parks: by organizing an interactive exhibition of 10 world-famous paintings by the greatest artists, the volunteers “erased” the image of the Madonna from them, leaving the babies alone. By sending any amount to the short number 3116, the visitors of the exhibition helped to return mothers "to their place" and thereby do a good deed by donating funds for orphanages.

One Person App

An application was launched on the website of the charity fund Changeonelife.ru, which allows users to find orphans similar to them in orphanages. The motto of this charity event in support of orphans is “In orphanages there are children like you. Find each other." Thus, the charity fund "Change one life" helped many abandoned children to find parents as similar as possible to them.

Social action in support of children "Not A Bug Splat"

In an attempt to protect the children of Pakistan from air strikes, the Human Rights Organization placed in the territory of this country giant portraits with the faces of children who lived in this country and could die every day. The social action in support of children "Not A Bug Splat" (which loosely translates as "Don't make a mistake") was aimed at the psychological factor: if from a bird's eye view people looked like dots, then, having seen children's portraits, many pilots could not stand and turned around without firing. Some of them retired from the armed forces permanently.


Examples of charitable actions in support of the most vulnerable segments of the population

Charity events in support of children are carried out quite often. Usually they cause a huge resonance. But what about people who do not belong to well-known categories - children, the elderly, people with dangerous diseases? Their lives are often in full view of everyone, but few people think that they also need help.

There is another poorly protected part of the population - women. They are usually called the weaker sex, but at the same time no one thinks that they are really much weaker than men, especially in situations where there is domestic violence in the family.

Unusual charity events in defense of women also carried out several times. The examples would puzzle many men who have not encountered them. Those who faced the same had to experience a sense of shame in public.

A famous example of a charity event of this kind - "Defenseless machine gun". Russia's largest shopping centers have installed vending machines that provoke men to use brute force simply by getting goods stuck in them instead of directly falling into the hands of the buyer. As a result, the male buyer was forced to hit the machine with all his might in order to “knock out” the purchased product from it. The effect of such a blow was the most unexpected: the girl on the monitor, previously smiling sweetly, after a strong push on the machine, began to sob loudly, attracting the condemning glances of other visitors shopping center to an unfortunate man.

Carrying out an unusual charity event- sometimes the task is not easy and requires real courage. A vivid example of this is overcoming 480 km on a motorcycle controlled without hands. Biker Phil Komar decided in such a non-standard way to draw the attention of society to people suffering from Parkinson's disease. He donated all the proceeds to a foundation researching this disease, after which he repeated his path twice, each time increasing the distance.

*There are a lot of examples of charitable actions all over the world. And what a pity that sometimes the organizers have to invent themselves in order to reach out to our society, to convey to every person that all possible assistance is necessary for those who are unable to solve their problems on their own.

Participation in charity events gives everyone the opportunity to do a good deed and help people who need help. That is why it is so important to draw public attention to this event.

The purpose of the charity event is transparent and simple It is the provision of necessary assistance to people who find themselves in a difficult life situation. These can be charity events for the disabled, assistance to social shelters and orphanages, etc.

What are the forms of expression of charitable assistance ?

Selfless transfer of skills and knowledge

Collection and transfer of various commodities (e.g. medicines, clothing, food, etc.) as well as financial resources

Disinterested provision of any services or performance of works

Volunteering - helping and caring for orphans, the disabled and the elderly

How to organize a charity event?

Social charitable actions can acquire a variety of scales - these are both urban and international charitable events. It all starts with a sincere desire to help. That is why absolutely every person can organize such an action, based on their capabilities. The main thing is the desire and possession of at least minimal organizer abilities.

For example, you can throw a party to celebrate your wedding day or your birthday. But ask guests instead of gifts to make a donation to a charitable foundation. You can also organize a subbotnik for the residents of your home. So, when you get together, you can make a great contribution to a good deed by cleaning, for example, your yard or the nearest park from garbage, painting benches, etc.

You can organize a charity event to help those in need within the framework of your office. You can contact a volunteer organization or a charitable foundation, request a list of the necessary funds and gifts that the wards of these organizations are waiting for. After that, the company's employees can purchase the necessary funds and take them to a charitable organization, or transfer the donation amount to the fund's account.

If you are planning to organize a mass event at the level of a city or region, then you cannot do without the help of professionals. Event agency organizers Holiday PRO they will develop an event program, prepare a clear timing and plan, think through every detail to create an interesting and rich scenario, and also take care of all the coordination with the city administration, charitable foundations, and volunteers.

A charitable action to help is an event that requires wide coverage so that as many people as possible hear about it and be able to help. To do this, as part of the organization of the event, we organize and hold a press conference.

We can implement a charity event in various formats:

  • Charity Fair
  • Celebrity workshops
  • Charity Auction
  • Children's theatrical performances
  • Sports charity events (marathons, tournaments, sports days, relay races)
  • Donation collection, etc.

Holiday PRO is a team of experienced organizers who put all their strength, knowledge and experience into creating a bright event. But a charity event is not just an event. For us, this is a unique opportunity to reveal all the kindness and generosity of our hearts, to help many people thanks to your initiative.

Charitable actions are very important because they allow to draw the attention of the authorities and citizens to serious public and private problems. Thanks to these events, the organizers not only raise funds for the implementation significant projects but give people the opportunity to do good deeds. Holding such events is possible only with the support of caring citizens, big business and authorities. Particular attention should be paid to media coverage of the event.

First of all, it is necessary to decide on the benefit of whom the charity event will be held. Based on this, it is necessary to develop the format of the event: it can be a fair, a sports festival, a concert, an auction, and much more. It is equally important to find sources of funds that will cover the costs of organizing and holding the event. Finally, you should enlist the support of the media, which will cover the planned action on their websites and in print media.

The easiest way to organize such an event is for a charitable foundation, big company or volunteer movement. For example, foundations often hold charity events in shopping malls. Most often, these events are timed to coincide with some holidays. Their essence lies in the fact that everyone is given the opportunity to prepare a gift for an orphan child and give it to an orphanage, putting it in a special box.

To hold such an action, first of all, you need to decide on the choice of a store or shopping center that will host the event. For this, both mailings and direct communication with the press service of the organization are suitable. The administration of the center must provide a detailed description of the planned action: how it will take place, what goals it pursues, and what the collected funds will be used for.

The management of the store should be interested in providing the charitable foundation with its space. It can be attracted by excellent advertising conditions, for example, by offering to enter the list of event partners or its board of trustees. But this is far from the only potential "winning" of the shopping center: participation in charity can raise the image of any business. In addition, it has been noticed that during the days of various promotions, the number of customers significantly increases at stores.

Another type of charity event is fundraising for medical treatment. The funds that organize such promotions guarantee that the funds will be directed to the intended purpose and that they are really needed. Usually, charity organisations place on their websites photographs of sick people, accompanied by detailed description diagnosis and required treatment. Also, the ad must contain a current account or other details for transferring money. In a larger version, the media are also involved in the action. Announcements for fundraising for treatment can be found today in many major newspapers and magazines. They only cooperate with foundations because they can publish reliable information.

However, they themselves printed editions they can also hold a charity event, both in cooperation with foundations and without their mediation. In the second case, the media themselves transfer the collected funds to those in need. Usually such events are of a one-time nature and are timed to coincide with the holidays. For example, before the New Year, some newspapers publish letters from orphans addressed to Santa Claus. Each reader, after reading the message, can purchase the "right" gift and send it to a child left without parental care.

You can also organize a charity event in your office. To do this, you must contact a charitable foundation or volunteer organization that oversees orphanages, hospitals or nursing homes. You can time the event to any holiday. Volunteers will bring letters from their wards, in which they tell what gift they are waiting for. And employees of the company will be able to purchase everything they need or transfer donations to the bank account of the foundation.

Organization of charity events is not difficult at all. The most important thing is to clearly define the goals and objectives of such an important event.

To get in touch, you can use the mailing system or make an appeal through the press service of a charitable foundation or organization. It is necessary to explain the program, the conditions for the event, the goal (most importantly), how to achieve it, and advertising. The management of the shopping complex can be attracted by offering favorable advertising conditions. You can declare them an information partner and offer to join the board of trustees. A positive image plays a very important role for a business. Yes, and the profit from holding such shares with the owners often increases significantly.

The role of the media

Fundraising for treatment can also be done through a charity event. Charitable foundations they ensure that people really need help. The Fund provides bank details, certificates and documents. Usually, photos and detailed diagnoses are posted on the site, they tell you what kind of treatment is needed. A large-scale action requires the involvement of the media. Many print media publish such announcements. They cooperate exclusively with registered organizations, since they can only publish confirmed information.

Often the publications themselves initiate one-time promotions during the holidays. Orphaned children write letters to Santa Claus, and their publications are printed so that caring readers themselves act as the addressee, giving the children such long-awaited gifts.
