I am a new co-pres and I have some ideas that I could you some help refining...
We have pretty good success with people sending in boxtops but our other collection items are lacking. We could earn $3 for cell/ink cartridges, but I think parents are not sure what to do with them. We have collection boxes at school with limited return. I would like to offer 1/2 price at a family fun night if you bring in a cell or ink cart. (Our dances are $2 to get in) or it could be for free refreshments which are donated.
Second, I would like to add a raffle prize at each event. (hockey tickets, basketball tickets, amusement parks...) I would appreciate any advice or comments.
