another donation card/favor question

Adriana got me thinking.

I too am doing a donation as well as some kind of edible favor. I am thinking truffles. Anyway on top of that I am doing awareness bracelets (think Livestrong) only for our cause.

So I wanted to package the candy and bracelet in a little box together. Think it's alright if I just make up like 2 tented donation cards per table. Will people read them or think they will get lost on the table and people will be like WT F Is this green bracelet for.

OR do I make us small donation cards and include them in the box with the candy and bracelet..

FYI the candies will be individually wrapped so it isn't like they will be touching the plastic bracelet.

Well.. my other thoughts were putting 2 signs on the table in frames telling people about the donation.

Or

making a larger sign to place by the placecards so that people knew from the second they walked in.

IMHO, I would put the cards on the box with the candy and bracelet.

Re: another donation card/favor question

how about putting a basket (or two) with all of the bracelets at the front entrance to the RH and a big sign right over it that says 'we've made a donation ... take a bracelet to support us' ...?

hmmm...... I like the frame idea. I originally wanted them in the boxes but the cards will have to be like business card size. Is that dumb?

Re: another donation card/favor question

Personally, I think it's best to put the donation card with the edible favor.

I went to a wedding in July and I'm pretty sure they did a donation, but not positive. The only reason I think so is because there was no favor, and then when I was looking at my pictures I saw my picture of the place card table and noticed a frame with a note written in it that I didn't even notice when I was there.
