School Fundraising Ideas

Due to the hectic nature of school life, most schools usually only run one or two major fundraising promotions each year. Most members of school fundraising committees are working parents, and are usually very busy people. They need to consider the types of school fundraising ideas that are:

• Simple
• Manageable
• Cost effective
• Time efficient

Planning School Fundraising

The planning of your fundraiser is paramount to its success. For example:

• Your school fundraising ideas are vital to its success, many people are approached for money all the time – how can you make people want to help? What can you offer them?
• The timing of the fundraiser is vital, and it’s important to decide early on in the process whether to run the fundraiser at the start, middle, or end of the year.
• Your school fundraising group should ensure that no other important events are being organised for the same time that they plan to run the fundraiser. This way the whole school focus can be targeted on the fundraising event. For example, one of your high school fundraising ideas might be to run a Christmas fundraiser, but if it is held too close to exam time, the success of the fundraiser could be adversely affected since the focus will not solely be on fundraising at that time of the year.
