School Fundraising Ideas

Helping you raise money to support your teachers and kids



I’m President of the Junior class at my high school, and we have to pay for prom this year. We have nearly no money, and I want to start earning now. I need some really good fundraising ideas that turn a good profit, but don’t cost alot from our account. I really don’t want to do a car wash or bake sale or anything like that. If you have done these could you please give me all the info and about how much money you made? Thanks.

Here are some fundrasing tips:

Ask local restraunts or businesses if they will hold a special night where a certain percent of the profit will be donated to your class. This works great for restraunts because students get to see eachother, eat great food, raise money, and the restraunt gets free advertising.

Also, try selling items that say “Class of ’09″ or your school name/logo on them and have spirit days where everyone wears them. Also, you can set up a stand in lunch that sells school supplies (ex: pencils, folders, pens…) that students can buy.

If raising money doesn’t work, try having each homeroom or student bring in a food item or decoration to bring to the prom so you don’t need to spend money, but you still have the stuff. DJ’s can be expensive, but an iPod or mp3 player hooked up to speakers can work just as well.

Good Luck fundraising, and I hope your prom is awesome! :-)

    It wouldn't be a bad idea to have a car wash/bake sale just to get some fast stake money to fund a bigger fundraiser. Use your profits to buy a really nice prize for a raffle. Things like iPods, digital cameras, spa treaments, and gift cards work well. You've got time to do several raffles between now and prom, so you could really blow the doors off and have the bestest ever prom in history. Don't forget to raffle off a prom night dinner at the best restaurant where everyone wants to go. Ask the principal if you can raffle off a parking spot (to be used for the rest of the school year) that is in a primo location. That would be a big seller and pure profit.
