PERSONAL & GROUP CAMPAIGNS
By inviting others to join you in supporting Rising Star through a campaign, you encourage them to take action to further support our mission.
Below, we have provided ideas to help you as you plan your campaign. There are ideas for scout troops, church groups, women’s clubs, families, and companies.
As you work to raise money, awareness, or needed supplies, it will help you develop a deeper commitment and connection to the people you are serving in the leprosy colonies.
Plan and host your own event
- Blog- If you have a blog, invite your blog readers to be a part of your presentation or event.
- Facebook- Post your event on your Facebook profile. Create an event page and invite your contacts. Encourage your friends to get involved.
- Email- Send an invite to those on your email list to attend.
- Thank you letters- Remember to send a little thank you to those who have supported you in your endeavors. Include an invitation to your presentation.
Depending on the date and location, we may be able to provide a guest speaker, materials and flyers, and local volunteer support needed in organizing your event. This work could not continue without you. To schedule your event, contact Shalay Branch at shalay@risingstaroutreach.org or 801-820-0244.

Book Drive
Hosting a book drive is an easy way for people to donate to Rising Star. Everyone understands the importance and power of a good book. Ask your friends and neighbors to donate some favorites from their library or to give a new book. Luckily, many childrens books are very inexpensive.
One young man did a virtual book drive and collected pledge donations. He created a shareable web page with a thumbnail of each book in need, allowing participants to choose which book they would like to give. They were also provided a bookplate (sticker) on which they could include their name and a small message to be placed inside the book that was pledged to be purchased. He also collected donations with which he used to travel to India to personally deliver the books to finish out his project.
Underwear for the students
Feminine Hygiene: Pads
Our female students are need of more sanitary feminine hygiene products, specifically pads. We would love to receive any unused boxes of pads. Our girls will be more comfortable attending school while on their menstrual cycle when they know it won’t interrupt their activities. Pads can help with this!
