Hi Everyone, We are a new pole studio wanting to do a fundraiser of some sort for cancer research..... Has anybody out there ever done or been to one ? We're not sure how we should run it --- offer marathon classes, proceeds go to benefit cancer ? Any ideas or suggestions or tips are welcome !!!! thanks !

My pole instructor has done 2 fundraisers. They were pole shows! The dancers (students) all danced for free and people donated 5 or 10 bucks to get in. We raised a few thousand dollars.
thanks ! that's a fun idea !
Hi im about to do one in april. we are colaborating with hairdressers, beauty therapists, Ann Summers and a few others who may be looking to promo their business into a ladies charity night. I am going to be demonstrating and teaching those who want to give pole fitness a go. So its a whole host of girlie things to try on the night whilst raising money for a good cause...plus free publicity. Might be an idea for you too? 😀
collaboration ! that is a great idea. we will definitely look into that.... girly stuff ! yess !!!!!!
At Xpose we do a few things to support various causes. Portion of Ms Xpose competition tickets supports a cause, we also do a naughty bingo night. I do like the showcase idea!
naughty bingo !!!! how does that work ???????? i want to do it NOW cuz it sound like tons of fun !!!!!!!

good luck with your fundraiser jayjay! can't wait to hear about it =)
naughty bingo !!!! how does that work ???????? i want to do it NOW cuz it sound like tons of fun !!!!!!! basically instead of longerberger basket full of junk, the prizes are various sex toys/novelty items. We have a few rules, if the letter is O everyone yells O in a sexy way. If the number is 69, you take a drink. Its a BYOB event. Usually the gifts are donated by a local sex toy rep (slumber parties, Party Gals, Brown Bag etc). Its a win win b/c the rep gets lots of bookings (ive heard when Xpose does vendor events or companies sponsor, thier customer base literally explodes) and some come home as happy campers.
