School Fundraising Ideas

"This website is full of great fundraisers for schools!"

Coming up with the perfect school fundraising idea can be a real headache!

You want to discover a great new school fundraiser but it seems that everything has been done before. Or perhaps you feel you don't have the time and resources to put something really good together.

But raising funds for your school does not have to be difficult. Listed below are a host of great money making ideas, all easy to use and with brilliant top tips to help you, not only raise more money, but also have a bit of fun with your fundraising.

The ideas below are so great that its tempting to jump straight in, grab a couple and return (in breathless excitement) to your fundraising committee to show them the gems you have discovered.

But slow down. First you need to start with the basics, to plan out your school fundraising strategy for the whole year.

A school year presents all sorts of opportunities for fundraising events as well as ongoing initiatives. Try to think carefully about the bigger picture. How can you incorporate new ideas into what you already know works? How can you engage parents, pupils staff and the local community? How can you raise money all the year round?

Great school fundraisers are all about people and communication. The best fundraising ideas are about telling a story. This can usually be split into 2 parts known as the WHY and the HOW

• WHY - Why are you raising money (new goalposts, art materials, minibus etc etc)
• HOW -How are you raising money (non-uniform day, ferret racing, sponsored cat grooming etc etc)
