School Fundraising Ideas
Many teachers and parents are looking for school fundraising ideas - especially with the downturn in the economy and budget crunches. Creative school fundraising ideas are needed to set your school or school group apart from the crowd. Whether you are raising funds for your soccer team, cheerleading squad, high school band, or a new computer lab, we have put together a list of creative school fundraising ideas for your school or organization.
With every school fundraising campaign, you are teaching your children about community service and being a part of something larger than themselves. In addition, using a service such as DoJiggy Pledge, will get your students on the computer and customizing their own personal fundraising page. They are not only helping to raise much needed funds, but learning that helping out can be fun and rewarding.
Important factors to consider when starting your school fundraising campaigns include:
- How much volunteer time will the project take? Do you currently have committed parents or other volunteers to assist in your planning process? How will your school recruit more?
- How will students be involved? What roles can students play?
- What are the upfront costs and how will your organization cover these?
- How can you raise community awareness of your school or school group while raising funds?
- What are you teaching your children through your fundraising campaign?
- What kind of prizes are you offering to the top fundraisers? Anything that makes the event more fun for kids, means that your event will be more successful and raise more money.
At DoJiggy, we've helped hundreds of schools raise money online. For instance, Friends School in Detroit raised over $68,000 with a student walkathon and Harvest Fest and Paradise Valley Christian Preparatory's 2009 Serve-a-thon raised over $36,000.
