Looking for unique fundraiser idea? Then you came the right place! One fundraiser that very few schools and other organizations take part in is the use of donation scratch cards. How donation scratch cards work is your participants ask a donor to scratch of a spot on the card to reveal how much money they should donate to the cause. This is great because there is no stocking, no selling, no melting chocolate, no unsold stock to worry about. Just scratch and donate. It’s truly that simple. This donation method can be purchased at numerous online fundraising sites. It is slowly catching on because people realize the true convenience of it. Although it is catching on, very few places are using this donation method so it is still a very unique concept by any standards.

New fundraisers are not hard to spot because many organizations come up with new ways to make a profit almost every year. A new type of fundraiser that can be seen happening in schools and other organizations is the collection of ink cartridges/toners. This kind of fundraiser is innovative because 50 years ago this would have been impossible because the personal computer was not yet invented. Another popular type of fundraiser is the collection of cell phones and or cell phone batteries. This also allows organizations to make a good amount of profit and help save the environment as well. Overall new fundraisers are a great way for organizations of any kind to make a few extra bucks and be creative at the same time.

When you are looking to hold a high school fundraiser you need to keep a few main points in your mind. Number one is that you need to consider what type of fundraiser will be simple to hold and manage. If your fundraiser requires a lot of labor and other time to setup and manage then it is less likely to become a success because of the amount of work you had to put into it. Another thing you need to consider is what a student or participant will have to do to help the fundraiser. If the task is to hard, for example the product is to hard to sell to their family, then your fundraiser will not be as successful as you planned. A great fundraising idea is to collect recycled ink cartridges. This is because you do not need to put any extreme effort into management of the fundraiser and people will be happy to contribute their “trash” to a good cause.

If you are looking for some ideas for a cheerleader fundraiser then you came to the right place. We’ll take a look at some of the latest innovative fundraising ideas that are out today, specifically recycling printer ink cartridges and donation scratch cards. The new trend in recycling printer ink cartridges is a real hit because there is such little effort involved for people to hold the fundraiser and participate. To hold it all you need to do is get the word out that you are collecting old ink cartridges for a good cause and watch them pour in. The participants only need to bring in the cartridges that they were planning on throwing out anyway – how easy is that? No selling, no collecting, nothing to stock, no melting chocolate bars etc. Another of my favorite fundraisers is a scratch card fundraiser. This is when you get cards printed from any fundraising site that has little scratch off areas on it covering up dollar amounts that range for $.05 - $2. Have a donor scratch a spot, and simply donate the amount that they scratched. This is great because again, no selling is involved. When I have used this fundraiser I found it worked much better than selling anything because there is much more profit. Another thing I loved was that the donor would usually round up to the dollar. This is much easier than just asking for a dollar donation because the donor feels that they took part in the process.

I remember when I was in school the strange variety of fundraisers that the school would have the students participate in. Of course we all know about candy bar sales (Just a quick side note to those that participate is candy bar sales – I was always the top sell in my school for one simple reason. I would look around my family for people with a sweet tooth and offer them “a box or two.” Try it. It works.) and we know about the magazine drive and so many other fundraising opportunities. Now I work in a school part time and I’m fascinated about the new types of fundraising that they take part in. One way is they made a “Fundraising / Support us” page on their website with affiliate offers. This is such a simple and effective way to get people to support your school. Another really simple school fundraiser that makes it easy for everyone to participate is recycling printer ink cartridges. This is effective because it costs nothing, there is no selling involved, and you were getting rid of the cartridges anyway. This is a truly effective fundraising method.

Fundraisers are a great way to make a good amount of profit. It is important to have a plan so that you don’t get lost when setting up a fundraiser. First set up a list of dates, have a date to start your fundraiser and one that it will end on. It is also important to have a fundraiser committee so you can have people who are in charge of any decisions that take place. Remember not to spend too much on your fundraiser and check up on your volunteers to make sure they are doing their work effectively and efficiently. The last thing you should do is advertise your fundraiser, let people know what the location of the event is and make sure they know from what hours it takes place in. Having a fundraiser if done properly should be fun and easy, so as long as you follow the steps above you have nothing to worry about.
