Give a hand to a local charity

November 13, 2013 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

I saw this photo on Flickr, which is just a jewelry display, and thought:

Oh wow, what a great display for any sort of consignment, resale or thrift shop!

Give a Hand promotional idea from TGtbT.com

Need a charity promo in your consignment or resale shop? How about “Give a hand” to a charity. ‘Handy’ bracelet display… the donor gets the bracelet and writes her name (or in memory of) on the hand which then goes in the shop window to encourage others.

Your business has donated the wholesale value of the bracelets (and the promo and store space), your customers donate a set amount (try $10)

… and ALL the income goes to help the less fortunate in your local community.

Here’s a hand template to make your cardboard cutouts.

Here’s the original  picture by a Flickr user that gave me the idea.
