Holiday Potluck Party for a Cause

by inlu blog patrol on November 25, 2011


Ok, so the turkey leftovers are wrapped in the fridge and life is good. We still have another solid month + of evening get togethers, office holiday huddles and other cheery merrymaking. So, why not get the friends together, and in lieu of bringing gifts, ask people to pitch in for any cause? Pick a local homeless shelter. Raise funds for the rainforest. Collect from your friends, buy dog food for a dog rescue. The ideas are limitless.

Here’s a sample of a Potluck Dinner for a Cause using inlu.com to coordinate a collection for any cause this Holiday:

Holiday Happy Hour, Inlu-Style

by inlu blog patrol on November 19, 2010

Oh, the sparkle-infused, magical evenings of wearing lipstick while sipping tasty eggnog, champagne or warm apple cider are upon us. The leaves are long gone. November is on its way out, and the month of happy hours, holiday festivities and other cheer-filled nights has finally (and quickly, might we add) arrived.

Well, ok, it’s not always so magical. Holidays can be stressful, wasteful and leave you feeling a tad guilty post indulgence. Well, this year, you can make those happy hours happier for everyone by using Inlu.com to round up RSVPs from friends and at the same time, collect for something special– a group donation to a local cause, a gift certificate for the host or even both! It’s really up to you and your circle of pals- what do you all care about? Your local farmshares? Animals? A local cause? The community foodshelf? Think about it and then invite others to come to the party and pitch in when they RSVP.

Think how great you’ll feel after a night of chit-chat, snacks and incriminating holiday party photos (kidding!) knowing it was all worth it cause you and your friends came together to party but as a result, a check is headed over to your local charity.

The way we see it, it’s a recession and if we’re gonna rally, we might as well make something memorable for others to enjoy (other than that one photo you hope to never see on facebook) from the effort. A lot of people are struggling so let’s not party on in vain. CHEERS!
