For several years now, our church has sponsored a Relay for Life team to raise money for the American Cancer Society. Borrowing the idea from some of our customers, we decided to raise money by “flocking” people with flamingos. For a small donation, we would sneak into someone's yard and flock them with about a dozen of the pink plastic birds. Then, for a donation from that household, the flock would "migrate" to someone else’s yard. We even offered flamingo insurance to anyone who did NOT want to be flocked!

Many organizations who use this idea get their picture on the front page of the local newspaper, so it’s great publicity. We were delighted to win the coveted “SPIRIT” award for best promoting the Relay For Life—plus we surpassed our goal and raised over $3000! This fun fund-raising activity has continued as a tradition in our county ever since.

If you belong to a non-profit organization and would like to use our Flamingo Flocking Fund Raiser, please click on Products, then Flamingos and Flamingo Stuff. You will find discount pricing under Flamingo Fund Raisers or Flamingos For Rent (yes, you may buy or lease the flamingos!). We offer discount pricing for larger quantities of flamingos, and you may keep them for up to 30 days. Please note: We do not personally deliver and set up the flamingos. We simply ship them to a designated address.
