What's also interesting is to challenge them to come up with an idea that will be of interest to everyone, and to bring it up during a special part of a meeting. For example, someone might bring up the concept of leveraged fund raising--where members tell others about a way to raise funds, and don't dig into their pockets. ( See http://www.Max-Opp.org or this Facebook page http://www.EnjoyableFundRaising.org) It's pretty cool when you can sell a digital download for $1.99 and make $1 out of it.
