One of the most pressing issues that parents and teachers are facing when they are trying to find ideas for school fundraisers is the need to find programs that are healthy for the students. The sad thing is that for a long time the only option for people who wanted ‘healthy school fundraisers’ were programs that had nothing to do with food or health and therefore couldn’t be unhealthy by default. And while we are very proud of the many non-food earth friendly fundraisers on our site, we are most proud of the improvements we have initiated in the area of healthy school fundraisers.
There are a few routes you can take on your journey towards doing healthy school fundraisers with Go Green Fundraising. The most obvious one is with our Healthy Creations Organic Food Fundraiser. Being a brochure based program allows your school to choose this healthy option and to get started at no cost. The program features food mixes such as organic breads, healthy snack bars, and healthy cookie mixes. It is a fantastic program for groups who want to sell something like cookie dough but want to go a healthier route.
Another option that is especially popular with groups looking for something to replace their candy fund raiser is our Jack Link’s Beef Jerky Fundraiser. It shares many of the properties of candy that make for a successful fund raising product. The beef jerky sells for just $1, has a long shelf life, and is easy to sell. But instead of being a sugary and unhealthy item, it is chock full of protein making it a much healthier option for your school fundraiser.
Yet another option you have when looking for healthy school fundraiser is our flagship Go Green fundraiser. It features some of the most popular items from the Healthy Creations program but also adds in a number of trail mixes and nuts all combined with a broad offering of earth friendly products.
Of course, you do still have the option of choosing a non-food based program to raise money at your school and we offer many of those as well. The most popular choice for schools is our Smencils fundraiser.
