Let’s face it – fundraising is seldom ever fun. Sure, the payoff at the end is nice – whether you’re paying off a trip, an entry fee for a competition, a new order of equipment or jerseys, etc. – but the actual process of raising the money your organization needs can be daunting. It can seem daunting to find the right fundraising idea for your group, then there’s then there’s the time investment, the overhead costs, and the guilt that many feel when asking friends and family to contribute to the group’s financial goal. To put it plainly, most people hate participating in fundraisers, and try to avoid them at almost all costs.
Lucky for you, though, A Plus School Solutions offers several outside-the-box fundraising ideas for youth organizations! Step away from the bake sale, put the soapy sponge back in the bucket, and hide your donations jar. These ideas are less conventional, less “tired,” and are something your group and your supporters will actually enjoy.
First off, we’re one of the few fundraising companies in the area that offers supplies for your very own “Color-a-thon.” You’ve seen color run events before, but hosting one of your own is a great way to engage your supporters, raise money, and have fun all at the same time! We supply everything you’d need to make your Color-a-thon a huge hit and put your organization closer to your overall goal in no time.
Additionally, we offer custom apparel options. This lets you put your creativity to work for your group, as you can design your own custom shirts, hoodies, and more and sell them to parents, fans and supporters of your group. Everyone likes being included, and a great design will go along way to helping your merchandise fly off the shelf. Plus, we offer the option to place just the order for the amount of pieces you need, so you don’t have to worry about having unsold inventory!
Finally, one of our go-to options for outside-the-box fundraising ideas is our Game Truck. You can rent out a mobile gaming center for your next fundraiser, and it’s sure to be a huge hit. Our gaming stations carry the best games on the best consoles and are always a great way to break the monotony of your steretoypical fundraising experience. You can essentially create a high-end arcade at your next event that is sure to help put your group closer to its fundraising goal.
No matter which option is the best fit for your group, consider A Plus School Solutions for your next youth fundraising event. We offer these outside-the-box fundraising ideas, plus all your traditional options (such as selling chocolate bars, popcorn and candy, the Elf on the Shelf, and more). We aim to help make fundraising simple, easy and profitable for your organization.
