A quality church youth group should offer plenty of activities to keep young minds on what matters. Still, these activities often cost money, which makes easy, successful fundraiser ideas like Fund-Team.com indispensable. We provide a 100% web-based platform for virtual donation campaigns.
Keep It Interesting
Embarrass the Youth Minister
Most church youth groups are led by a good-natured minister who will be happy to face small humiliations to raise money for the group. Whether you set a donation goal to see rising levels of embarrassing moments or have one significant goal, the point is the same - donations in exchange for the youth minister agreeing to a penalty. Examples may include everything from a pie in the face to a water dousing, sliming, or goat kiss.
In-Person or Virtual Trivia Night (extra points for Bible trivia)
Competition fuels fundraising. Participants can collect pledges for the number of questions they get right, or the individuals or teams may pay a registration fee for participation. Depending on its size and location, your youth group may decide to partner with other youth groups for a more challenging and interesting event.
Youth Group Merch
Some spirit-led slogans, artistic designs, and T-shirts can be all the elements you’ll need for another successful fundraiser for youth groups. “Make Heaven Crowded,” “First Things First,” “WWJD,” and “Jesus Rocks” are just a few ideas to get your group started brainstorming!
Pancake Breakfast
Choose a weekend morning and host a pancake breakfast. This fundraiser might be excellently scheduled for a Sunday morning before services. The youth group members can easily offer pancakes, juice, and coffee for an admission fee. Church members will happily support the youth and appreciate the physical nourishment before being spiritually filled.
Consider adding bagels and cream cheese, a waffle station, and cold cereal for those who don’t care for pancakes. You can also add a variety of add-ins for different kinds of pancakes. When planning this fundraiser, consider checking with the local grocery stores. They will frequently sell goods at wholesale prices when they’re used or for fundraisers.
