Hey guys! Here's a great site with a ton of awesome ideas for donation requests! A lot of the companies listed are larger companies, so be sure to check out their guidelines - some only donate to their immediate communities.

Here are some updates and notes that may be helpful:
JetBlue denied us because our event was not 90 days out. Last year was a different reason so I have not had success yet.
American Girl is not accepting requests until May 1.
We have very little luck on the corporate end, except from Disney. Our donors tend to be local. If anyone has success with any other national corporations, please share!

Wanted to pass along that often some businesses need a follow-up call about what they promised to mail / to see if they are still "interested" in participating. I find that some people forget and get busy and if you force yourself to mail these kinds of phone calls, you'll get additional prizes that would not have materialized. After doing this a few years, I know in advance that I'll have to call several businesses. Just how things go.

Do you have an email or address for Seafair? I can't find it anywhere online.

Thanks!

We have gotten Disney Tix 3 years running. Not sure what we would do if they didn't donate as they are our best seller!
