The 4th of July is quickly approaching, so consider planning your Independence Day adventures now.
Shop online for your Independence Day celebration supplies, and give back to your community at the same time. FlipGive is an online-based fundraising tool, dedicated to providing hassle-free fundraising for groups looking to raise money for their team or event. FlipGive works with popular brands that are already loved by shoppers, and offer cash back on all purchases made through FlipGive fundraising pages.
Scope Out Some Fireworks
Creating a fireworks show at home can be expensive, cost a lot of time, and be extremely dangerous. Stray from lighting your own fireworks, and set off to find a fireworks display in your local area. Many cities offer extravagant firework displays on Independence Day, safely. Research where a fireworks display will take place in your city, and find a good spot away from the crowds ahead of time.
Eat Good Food
Chances are that for Independence Day celebrations, eating a good meal will be somewhere on your schedule. FlipGive partners with some great dining establishments that have gift cards available for purchase on fundraising pages, so treat your loved ones to a good meal out on Independence Day.
Find a Local Independence Day Party
If you look ahead of time, you’ll be able to find Independence Day events that are going on in a city near you. Get a cooler or daypack ready, and pack some snacks to nourish you and your family throughout the celebrations. Luckily, The Container Store has all of the food storage solutions you need and provides 5% cash back on all purchases made through FlipGive fundraising pages.
Put Together a Community Potluck
Get to know your neighbors with an Independence Day potluck. Share information on the potluck via social media, flyers, and word of mouth, reserve or rent an outdoor space, and set up a grill for the day. Encourage all attendees to bring a specialty dish, or some vegetables or meat to cook on the grill. Bring along some lawn games to spread out the fun between servings.
Get ready for your Independence Day celebrations ahead of time by purchasing supplies from the amazing brands that support FlipGive’s fundraisers.
