Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow: Challenge people to go bald for charity.You can simply let people know that X window of time costs Y dollars and they get this amazing thing they’ve custom-painted at the end. This is the sort of thing where time is money, so you’ll need to foresee the possibility that some people doddle when creating. Painting/DIY Booth: From Christmas decorations to little birdhouses, there are all sorts of things people could paint.Perhaps you could sell ready-made cakes but let people choose their icing flavor for an extra $5 – get creative! But any time you can offer a “custom” idea, it’s a chance to charge more and make more for charity. Bake Sale: Who doesn’t love tasty, delicious things? From cakes and pies to cookies and tarts, well-baked goods are always a crowd-pleasing booth idea.With 500 sheets of paper costing just a few bucks, this is a booth you won’t have to spend much money to run, but you’ll need entertaining booth hosts to draw a crowd.


Casino Booth: People love to play cards and gamble a bit.

If you miss the bottle, you can choose the drink you like but it costs double, with all proceeds going to charity, of course. You can always make these more interesting by changing an element or two – instead of just throwing the ring on a bottle, the ring toss is how you choose the drink you’re buying with a hot dog. Never overlook games because people love booths where you throw darts at balloons, toss a ring around bottles or any number of classic old carnival-style games.
