Cookie Dough Sales
Cookie dough, straight from the bucket or safely baked in the oven, is always a popular fundraiser sale item. Ensure that your chosen company has a good reputation, doesn't require upfront money, and lets the team keep most of the profits.
Pledge “A-Thons”
Walk-a-thon, practice-a-thon, lap-a-thon, hit-a-thon—whatever the theme, pledge drives work. Have your team collect pledges or promises of a certain donation level per mile, exercise, lap, hit, etc., the athlete performs. Then, choose a day to perform the activities and record the results. Have team members follow up by collecting the pledged amounts earned. A great fundraiser will be on the books!
Dinner Plate Sales
Whether you plan a fish fry, spaghetti dinner, chili cook-off, or a hamburger sale, pair food and fundraising for a successful event. Determine how much food to cook by how many tickets team members sell and how much walk-up traffic you anticipate. Recruit boosters to cook or retain the donated services of an area restaurant where the team keeps all or most of the profit. You can also find local grocery stores that will sell supplies to you at wholesale costs when they know the profits go to an area team.
Leverage Online Communication
People communicate through email, text messaging, and social media. Each method is easy and accessible, so why shouldn't you leverage them for fundraising? Fund-Team.com uses all these methods and provides an automatic system for sending donation requests. We're fully web-based and require only about 10 minutes to set up a campaign.
Team members will enter potential supporters' email addresses and cell numbers - legitimate info only. We will send personalized requests with the headshot and name of the team member known to the recipient, and they can then donate via debit/credit card, PayPal, Apple Pay, or Google Pay. We provide an individual link for each member as well as a general one for the team to share on various social media feeds.
We keep 5%, payment processing companies take about 3%, and the team retains ~92% of the donations made. You won't find a more profitable fundraiser, plus it's easier, faster, and safer than other options. With zero minimum to raise and zero costs to set up a campaign, you risk nothing and only gain.
