Bottle drives are a fundraising tradition, and a perfect fit for environmentally conscious Scout and Girl Guide
... groups. Collect returnable bottles and cans from neighbours and local businesses, return them for the deposit, and keep the proceeds. It's a great community-building activity that also teaches kids about sustainability and recycling.

A pledge drive is one of the most reliable and easiest fundraisers for Scout troops and Girl Guide groups. Members reach ... out to family, friends, neighbours, and local community members asking for a flat donation or a pledge tied to a specific goal or activity. Parents can then share their child's fundraising page via text, email, or social media. With no inventory to manage and no events to coordinate, pledge drives are a low-effort, high-return fundraiser that works well any time of year.

The classic bake sale is simple, low-cost, and always a crowd-pleaser. Set up at local farmers markets, community events, or ... outside grocery stores on a busy Saturday morning. Encourage members to bring distinctly specialty treats like butter tarts, Nanaimo bars, or maple cookies for an interesting flair.

Collect donated items from troop and group families and host a community garage sale. Price items affordably to move ... volume, and donate any unsold items to a local charity afterward, a gesture that aligns perfectly with the Scout and Girl Guide mission of community service. A garage, yard, or rummage sale works especially well in spring and early summer.

This beloved community tradition translates perfectly into a Scout or Girl Guide fundraiser. Host a pancake breakfast at your meeting ... hall, local community centre, or place of worship. Charge a modest admission, add a raffle or bake sale table alongside, and invite the broader community. 

Host a family-friendly trivia night open to the broader community. Charge a per-team entry fee, sell concessions, and offer ... donated prizes for the winning table. Trivia nights are low-cost to run, require minimal supplies, and are a genuinely fun community event that brings families together beyond the troop or group.

Partner with a candle supplier or store to sell products on commission, or have group members make handmade candles to sell ... at local markets or community events. This works particularly well in the lead-up to the holiday season when shoppers are actively looking for unique, locally made gifts. A homemade candle sale can also showcase the creativity and skills your members have developed through their program.
