Raising to the occasion
Fancy dinner parties, rock concerts, fashion shows — the act of fund raising gets glamourous
Manpriya Khurana

It's a classic example of means to an end and if the end is noble and means are novel, nothing like it. With fund raising getting chic and innovative, it's about charity that sees the cause, not the channel. Raise a toast to the dinner party donating the proceeds for the welfare of girl child; to a rock concert, raising funds for slum children; a fashion show trying to save the environment.

The fund raising idea bank keeps getting innovative. 'We'll be doing an event in the beginning of July, wherein we'll be calling onto people to be part of a fund raising and public awareness movement on HIV aids, save the girl child and breast cancer through a full day camp and a fashion show,' says Shekhar Gharu of Blue Sky Society, a social research, development and educational society. Shekhar is already working on a couple of ideas. He adds, 'So far, we were using our own investments but now we are looking for charity.' Therein steps the need to innovate and reinvent, explore just about any platform possible.

Perhaps it's a matter with social activism the world over, with Internet being abuzz with fundraiser ideas from product sale, online auctions, and raffles to entertainment events.

Meanwhile Saathi, yet another youth-based NGO, is considering combining a rock concert and a fundraiser. Shares Punita Singh, president, Saathi, a week in advance of the preparations, 'This NGO itself came into being as a platform for youngsters to channelise their energy. We formed this NGO last December and adopted around 310 slum children. This event is a fund raiser for them.' She adds, 'The event is actually supposed to serve double purpose. Since the music scene in Chandigarh is as it is not very happening, we thought of giving a platform to all the Chandigarh- based bands on one hand and accumulate funds on the other. We also plan to turn it into a yearly event.'

With art auctions and stage plays being already explored-enough phenomenon, there's a graduation to entertainment or performing arts. Adds Shekhar, 'That's because any organization or cause needs finances to survive. That comes only if there's an awareness and hype about the event.' He adds, 'Things like fashion show generate much more interest and attention and at the end of the day, we want to raise as much of awareness as possible and also rope in the elite class because it's they who have the funds.'

With justifications running just as long, there's no dearth of ideas either. 'We've already used a fusion music concert, a classical opera, an instrumental German concert in various collaborations, as some of the platforms to raise funds,' Kalpana Ghai, vice- president, Balsadan, lists one after the other. She adds, 'I'm involved with three NGOs and currently planning to collect donations for the wedding of one of the girls at Kalyani Maa Sewa Trust which was founded by a German friend of mine Ute Mayr. Some of my friends are on Facebook and they'll be raising money even from Germany.'

The list is yet not exhaustive, as shrugs Shekhar, 'We have many more ideas too, but we don't want to share them right away.' Like it's said, the good thing about charity is, you do anything, and in the end it's still a charity.
