Unique Fundraising Ideas for Schools

By learning more about the strategies that can help your organization reach its financial objectives, you can begin to move forward in your fundraising. It’s becoming more difficult for schools to develop unique fundraising ideas, and to engage fundraisers to give to their campaigns. But with some forward-thinking creativity, teams can create strategies that drive them toward meeting their goals. In this latest post, our team explains several unique school fundraising ideas.

Gift-Wrapping Stations

Around the Holidays, there are many people in the local area simply searching for an easy way to ensure all their gifts are effectively wrapped. For those who don’t have gift-wrapping talent, schools can set up gift-wrapping stations on-site. They can use these stations to gather funds for their campaigns while also promoting the schools to visitors.

Fashion Shows

The great benefit of hosting school fashion shows is that these events can be held throughout the year to promote the latest styles of the season. Schools can work with local retailers to sponsor fashion show events, and then sell tickets to local area residents so they can see the latest fashions. The school and the retailer may then be able to share some of the proceeds for any purchases made at the event. It’s a great way for schools to work with local businesses in generating interest.

Online Crowdfunding

Crowdfunding has become one of the more popular school fundraising ideas for students to promote their campaigns to friends and family. Now, fundraising teams simply need to disseminate links to potential donors and use the latest platforms to provide full information on their fundraising objectives. While online crowdfunding is simpler than most campaigns to set up, it can be difficult to generate interest with a large amount of competition for engagement online.

FlipGive

The FlipGive platform is one of the best new ways for online teams to fundraise while giving their donors the added benefit of access to the latest brands. The platform brings teams and their donors together and allows them to shop for the latest products and earn cash back as part of the shopping experience. The cash back then goes to support the fundraiser’s campaign. There are no fees to pay, and teams can withdraw their built-up funds at any time!

By capitalizing on the latest and most creative school fundraising ideas, you can ensure campaigns achieve their goals and reach a large number of people throughout the region.
