All-Star Fundraisers - Any Ideas??

[cheerislove8]

Raffles are usually a huge hit! Raffle off seats to a sports game. If anyone has season tickets, I'm sure they wouldn't mind giving up ONE game! You can sell tickets for $5 or sell 5 tickets for $20. HUGE potential profit if you publicize it well!

bowling, restraunts, raffles (you can do raffles just about any were like at racetracks, or at any type of show)
those usually make lots of money if you have people from the team walk around and ask people to buy tickets

here are two extremely profitable and EASY fundraisers we have done in the past. The first is we did a back to school fashion show sponsored by GAP. We sold tickets at $10 and we had a local church allow us to use risers for our runway. We did light refreshments and each cheerleader participating donated a basket for the raffle. The whole event took about 20 man hours, not including set up and breakdown which did take a bit of time the day of. Total rasied from 50 cheerleaders: $3,500.

Second EASY fundraiser we do every year is our bottle drive. All you ask for is the reciepts, not the bottles. At some point in life you have to bring your bottles back, and here in NY when water bottles became returnable everythign changed. As a program we raised over $2,000 in bottle reciepts. Man hours required: zero.

For our school fundraisers be it for PTA or band and such there are a lot of local restaurants around us that do "Dining For Dollars". We have a band one tonight, so that is our dinner :)

Last year one of the PTA Dining For Dollars raised $2000 in ONE NIGHT. They are pretty simple too and you can do multiple ones. Like several restaurants near the school have every Friday night before a football game come in and a percentage of your bill goes to the sports booster club. Another has a standing night every month for the band. At some of the restaurants the organization has to come help do something. Like when the band did one at a hamburger place the band kids all wore their band shirts and they were the ones delivering the food to the patrons when it was ready. There were jars on the tables for patrons to leave tips and the tips went to the band. At a couple of the others the kids or teachers walk around with the bread basket and serve the rolls to the patrons and a percentage of the proceeds from that night go to the organization. Some restaurants give a percentage based on the total of the receipts for that night (usually a certain time period be it 11am-9 pm or 5-9 pm) while others you have to hand out fliers and let people know they have to put their receipt in the specially marked box and the group gets a percentage of THOSE receipts.
I really like the Dining For Dollars as it is something the whole community can do to help. I mean, we all have to eat.

If your cp's are still the young/cute age you could have them wear their uniforms & have a bake sale or something like that in your yard.
