Great In School Fundraiser

First, you may be wondering just what we mean by ‘in school fundraiser‘. In school fundraisers are programs where the entire fund raiser in done on school property, typically during the school day. The benefits to raising money like this are that students do not need to go door to door selling and that it is much, much easier to keep track of everything. Not to mention how much easier it is to keep everyone thinking about the fundraiser if it is done at school.

Many schools have reported having a difficult time finding school fundraising ideas that seem like they would bring in very much money when done as an in school fundraiser. Most traditional programs, like cookie dough or candy sales, can be tough to do on school grounds because 1)many schools have banned the sale of sugary foods and 2)most schools do not want to interrupt class to push their program.

Go Green Fundraising has come up with a solution that many schools around the country are adopting and having excellent success with. Our Smencils fundraiser is the perfect in school fundraiser.

In case you do not know, Smencils are pencils (either standard #2 pencils or with colored graphite) that are made by wrapping recycled newspapers around the graphite and then soaking them in fun smells. Kids love them because they are fun and cheap, they only cost $1.

The reason this program is one of the best in school fundraising ideas is that it is so unobtrusive and yet the product makes sense in a school setting. The easiest way to do a Smencils fund raiser in your school is to buy one bucket of 50 Smencils for each teacher and have the teachers put them on their desks. When a student needs, or just wants, to buy a Smencil they can quietly go to the teachers’ desk and pay for one. That way class is not interrupted and yet the fundraiser is happening. You can even reward the class that buys the most Smencils with a party of some kind. And since every student will need a pencil at some point, they naturally make sense in the classroom environment.

The other great thing about Smencils is that your school earns a whopping 50% profit. Plus, shipping is always free, even if you only order 1 case.

Another fun aspect of in school fundraisers is that it is much easier to keep track of how your sale is going and how much money you have raised. We offer a free digital fundraising thermometer that many schools use in conjunction with their in school fund raising programs.
