Practical next steps
If you are organizing or attending similar fundraisers, consider clearly labeling colour stations and safety instructions, ensuring powder products are non-toxic and suitable for children, and coordinating with school staff on timings and routes. Businesses considering sponsorships can document sponsor contributions for school records and communicate expected benefits to families. For families, check for any allergies to colours used and follow event guidelines for a safe, fun experience.
