Hi: Thanks for the idea of the calendar. Our total goal is $4900.00 for the year. We are currently holding a raffle for Santa Cash at Christmas, we do Club Choice which is food and new this year will be a garage sale. We have a meeting tonight so I may bring up the calendar idea for next year. Thanks and please keep the ideas coming.
We have about 400 students. As a parent I got a little frustrated with the number of fund raisers my school did too. I also got frustrated because it seemed like they sold the same old stuff. I kept thinking why can't you sell something I can use.
We have approx 100 families and 150 children. We do an annual lottery calendar which usually raises about $10,000. As long as you have a daily state lottery, it's pretty easy. Once you sell your calendars the first year, they pretty much sell themselves the next year because people usually keep their same numbers. Mon-Fri pay $25 each day, Sat&Sun pay $50 each with 8 holiday special days which pay anywhere from $150-$500. Each calendar is sold for $25.
Just an idea....

Hi: I am the fundraising chairperson for a school with 115 kids and about 72 families. We have a hard time getting the parents involved. Also the parents complain about the fundraisers that we have. We do about 4 - 5 fundraisers a year. We really need some great ideas that would be good for a small school. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much
