Smart fundraising coordinators know that the secret to meeting their financial goals year after year is to always be on the lookout for creative fund raising ideas. Doing this can help set them apart from other groups raising money and can make the whole fund raising process more fun for the participants which invariably leads to better results.
What will qualify as creative fundraising ideas and how successful those ideas will be depends a lot on what kind of group you belong to. For example, getting creative and having a lift-a-thon just wouldn’t make much sense for an animal shelter fundraiser. Similarly, picking winter fundraising ideas like selling holiday wrapping paper will be very much out of place if you try and do it during the spring months.
So the challenge is to find creative fund raising ideas that make sense for your group and there are a bunch of them.
One great example of a creative fund raising idea that works for a specific group is an elementary school art class that sold Smencils to raise money. They got permission from the principle to set up a booth at the main entrance to the school and sold the scented pencils in the morning and when school was let out for the day. Selling the Original Smencils and the Colored Smencils was a fun and creative way to raise money for an art class.
Another example comes from a customer of ours in Illinois. They were looking for neighborhood association fundraising ideas to help pay for some flower beds that were going to be installed at the entrances to the neighborhood. They sold flower bulbs to their neighbors and friends and had a very successful fundraiser.
As you can see, there are many ways to use creative fund raising ideas to meet your fund raising goals. If you would like to speak with an expert on how to get creative with your program, please feel free to call us at 877-448-9746.
