Students at a school in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin raised funds with a cookie dough fundraiser. This time they had even more motivation than usual. Part of the funds raised benefited Ronald McDonald House where a classmate stayed during her battle with Lymphoma.

“I think its nice that they donate to places in the community rather than using the money for things that only benefit themselves,” added student council advisor Liz Pukrop.

What a great way for a school to help a fellow student!

Students got the chance to learn the value of giving and community service. This is also a great example of how to generate more interest in a fundraising drive by benefiting more than one group. Perhaps your group could partner with another that needs to raise funds to increase your reach.
