Easy Fundraising: Teach a Social Media and Social Networking Class for Parents
This is great high school fundraiser and a creative fundraising idea. You can easily teach a social media class for adults who would like to become more familiar with these technologies.
Lots of parents simply don’t understand Facebook, MySpace, Twitter or other mainstream web technologies. Some would also like to understand how to text or text more efficiently (using T9, for instance) and become more familiar with texting abbreviations.
Some would also like to understand how to:
- Use Skype
- Add music to an iPod
- Use an iPhone
- Make minor changes to images
- Set their email account up so that it can be read through Gmail
You could even introduce them to fun sites they might enjoy like Pandora or teach them the basics of navigating Youtube, which is a maze. Many parents might also like to know how to set up Google Alerts and/or Google Reader to follow topics they enjoy (both of these services are also very helpful in the business world).
Charge a fee for attending the class(es) and advertise your offerings in school and PTA newsletters. Enjoy raising quick money for your organization while helping to educate others.
Here are some basic guides to topics you might want to cover, so you don’t have to “reinvent the wheel” when creating your lesson plan:
