Archer Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I have often wondered if my display is generating donations comparable to others doing the same thing. I am very rural as it is a 10 mile roundtrip for a gallon of milk and all my viewers are by car or over the Internet. Also, we have received donations from viewers of our display on our website for this year's cause. With one week to go we have collected over $5,000.00 but have no clue if we are in line with others in our hobby or if I need to ratchet it up a notch in that department. To get an idea of how I collect please visit kevinkolak.com and view video 2.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Mitchell Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Sounds like you have done amazingly well. The best I have ever done is $2,500 in a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darryl Lambert Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 So far this year we've collected almost $8000. Our best year was $12700 & our worst was $6800 ( year of a bad ice storm & had no power for the 4 days before Christmas ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsMeBobO Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 That is a LOT of money ! I don't collect for Christmas. But in the halloween days the most was $1100 which included tours and parties at $10 a head. You did very well for your charity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oilmoney Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I collect only for the SPCA and food bank if someone drops food off. Right now I'm at about $1500 so far this year plus 8-10 bags of items for the SPCA as well. I'm happy with this total considering last year I only raised half that...
