Third-Party Fund-raiser Ideas


When a company, organization or individual holds a promotion, event or sale to benefit the Northwest Arkansas Children’s Shelter, we call that a Third-party Fund-raiser. We are grateful for the dollars raised through these initiatives, and they go a long way in helping us ensure that the Children’s Shelter is able to provide care to hundreds of children in crisis in our community.
