School Fundraising Ideas

Helping you raise money to support your teachers and kids


I’m on the board of the PTO at my son’s elementary school. I’m am the head of our big end of the year fundraiser and I’m looking for places that are good to ask for donations for our raffle. We are a non-profit organization and all of the money goes towards the kids. We are in CA (San Diego area) and I need ideas of places that I can get a hold of for donations. I have already done the gig amusement parks like Disney, Knotts, Sea World, Zoo, Legoland. Do any of you have any ideas or know of any places that donate to help kids? It can be almost anything (as long as it’s apropreate for a family event). Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you all so much for your help!!!

Here is my list of places to go to ask for donations:
A Church (Pretty much Everyone will give donations)
Put up signs for a local food market
Talk to the principle of a school to tell students about it
Local Library’s
Restaurants (most will help the good cause)
Any big food markets (Costco, Whole foods)
the mall (There are many many people there so at least some will donate)
So that’s my small little list Good Luck!

    Watch the broken common man
    Drown his sorrows at unhappy hour.
    Dirty and sweaty
    With just enough to get by.
    Calluses on his hands calluses on his soul
    Hard-boiled son of a bitch
    Scraping away on the down hill grind.
    It’s a means to an end, a mean end for most.
    Death and domestication ends in shattered hopes
    Can’t see the hand at the other end of the leash.
    Turn and bite.
    Turn and bite the hand that bleeds you dry.
    Throw yourself a bone, no one else will.
    Compromise leads to self-loathing
    Money the excrement of labor.
    And you don’t get to keep shit
    Except politics and power trips and a bad breath down your neck.
    I know
    For I have toiled in the halls of the mighty
    And not received a teardrop in a bucket.
    Motherfuck it.
    The world doesn’t owe me a thing
    But you do (Motherfucker).
    So crooked when you die they’re ganna have to screw your ass into the ground.
    As life slowly unravels
    Rise above, extract your life.
    Will you look within
    Then turn around and bite?
    Day by day the mask suffocates your life
    Is this any way to live?
    No fucking way.

  4. Jenny Said,

    I run a school fundraiser and I have found that the more local places you contact the more donations you get.
    Also, if you want a bigger item I would suggest to call ski resorts, hotels and we also have gotten hot air balloon rides.
    In addition, always use connections. You would be surprised how many people you know are connected to some sort of cool people attracting business. Every thing helps so don’t be afraid to take anything!
    Good luck, may your event be a success as all of mine have.
