Campaigns should be informative, but they should also be a good time. Here are some ideas for making your campaign fun.

Children’s Drawing Contest
Give employees “official photographs” of one or two top executives to take home for their children to draw. Limit contest to children who are 12 or under. Employees vote for the best drawing by paying $3 per vote. Give prizes to all participants. Display winning portraits as a part of the organization’s permanent art collection.

Book/Video Sale
Ask employees to donate old books, videos, and cassette tapes for an employee book
sale. Sell paperbacks for $2, hardbacks for $4 and cassettes, CDs and videos for up to $5.

A Dollar An Inch
Employees get to cut off a piece of their boss’ tie with each donation; you decide how much to charge per inch. Executives participate in an all day event to see who ends up with the shortest tie. Give prizes for the shortest tie, ugliest tie, etc…

Casual Day
Choose a participation minimum, or charge a onetime fee. For a twist, try a theme day; give prizes for the most original outfit.
