Surefire High School Fundraising Ideas

By Tammie Caldwell


Schools need to raise money to help students pay for a variety of activities, and the little extras that make the educational system that much more interesting and exciting. With financial cuts interfering, schools need to get very creative in order to earn this money. Below, find some surefire high school fundraising ideas that actually work and will involve both students and staff alike.

Of late, discount cards have become extremely popular, and for many good reasons. Providing discount cards or even books from local merchants gives back to donors, helping them save a few bucks for things they really want. Depending on the company, discount cards can be free while others may charge a fee. What's important is that they can be very valuable, as they can come from popular restaurants, movie theaters, and so on.

Some may even get discount cards from mobile phone carriers, in the form of prepaid cards or phones. Alternatively, some may even get great results from big retailers that are always looking for ways to give back to their community. Other clever ideas involve raffle tickets. Many local merchants are looking for new customers, so a good many of them can be on board to provide free meals, free haircuts or styles, manicures or pedicures, and so on.

Raffle tickets can also be very successful if there are tickets to a popular sporting event or concert. Of course, these can be difficult to acquire, but some people do have their connections and they really go a long way. However, it's vital for anyone doing the fundraising to choose the ideal campaign for the particular time.

Be careful not to overdo the same campaign, as it will eventually grow tiresome and not achieve successful results. Therefore, it's recommended to make some important changes. For example, introduce crafts that would bring out the talent in numerous students that could actually paint. There could be an online auction to make it more interesting.

There are lots of art loving people in the community that would love to get an original painting for their home or business. Other such ideas for fundraising include costume jewelry making. All one needs is a little creativity, some fine silk thread, wire, and quality beads to make necklaces, bracelets, and anklets. Snacks stalls are also extremely popular, in all levels of education.

In order for it to be a successful campaign, however, one has to find a high traffic location. It is this area that will provide more sales, and thus, generate more money. At the same time, those doing the baking should do their best to make them look tasty and enticing.

For decades, in movies and in neighborhoods all over North America, car washes lead in money raising campaigns for schools. These are still popular and can generate quite an amount of money over the course of a few days. A successful campaign should be planned according to the weather, and should last a few days. Again, a high traffic location is necessary to generate good income, as is some marketing to get as many as customers as possible.
