The Applebees pancake breakfast fundraiser is awesome. Applebees cooks all the food, however the girls act as waitresses and hostesses and bring out everything for the customers that come in. Because Applebees isn't normally open for breakfast ANY CUSTOMER that comes in automatically donates a percentage to your organization. Applebees also provides a pre-made flier, and you can just plug in your organizations info and pass it around.
Additionally, there are basic fundraising/selling merchandise programs that are super easy and can be done throughout the season to gain funds.
Fundraising | Team Cheer
A lot of the items you can sell have up to a 90% profit for the girls. It's super easy for parents to bring the order sheets or items into their offices etc. to sell.
In my high school, we were also allowed to have bake sales at school every Friday afternoon. The Senior students would go set up during the last period of the day. Those were always a big hit among students and made between $50-$100 every time (I came from a very large high school).
We do Applebee's pancake breakfast too and it's great!! Super easy. Were are going to sell Yankee candles this year as well. $10.00 profit on each large candle (25.00) not bad! I figure offer the team as many fundraising opportunities as possible for those who need it. Those who would rather just pay out of pocket can opt out! We have a few like Applebee's where participation is mandatory since it goes towards our team fund, but most are optional.
