Well-oiled cogs in a machine create efficiency, and team building events are essential to a healthy workplace culture. The driving force behind the growth and performance of an organization, the achievement of the whole depends on how well they work together.

However, walkathons, marathons, raffles or other events of the like aren’t at all exclusive to the industry, and many dabble in similar approaches to promote their own agenda. Here are some fun, simple and easy fundraising ideas that are guaranteed to bring your success.
