Trying To Raise Money For Next Cheer Season....any Idea??!!

[shayla_96]

So this upcoming cheer season I will be 18 so the only team I can be on is our IOC 5 team. I have the skills needed to be on the team but its a lot more money than I'm used to paying. And I can't get a job because cheer practice will take up ALL of my time. If you have any idea of how to raise/make money so I can cheer please let me know!!!!

Car wash? Bbq? bake sale?

selling bows, doing choreography for school teams (all stars have already chosen theirs), making mixes (if you're good at that), doing cheer hair and makeup for comps

Any local high schools that might need some help- stunting, motions, choreo?

did you ask if the gym has fundraisers available?

And how about offering babysitting for minis at overnight comps and let their parents play for a couple of hours?

Babysitting, transporting athletes to/from the gym, personal 50/50 raffle.

Talk with your gym/team, there must be some people in the same position as you, maybe put together a fundraising/booster club. I know you said cheer would take up all of your time but maybe look into coaching a youth/level 1 team this season?

Once you have a team formed ask your gym if you can have a auction for "services" within the gym. My daughters io5 team auctioned off, make up and hair at a comp, tutoring, baking by a member who attends culinary school, 2 hours of "man power" for garage cleaning, landscaping, moving etc, a photo session by one who does photography, privates for those who coach, vacation house rental of a family's house etc. it raised a lot of $

maybe ask your gym if you can be put on a payment schedule type of thing. Then you can may in increments instead of all at once with things. I know most gyms has monthly tuition so then instead of paying one large sum of money at the start of the month, you could break it down into a smaller amount each week or two weeks. I know that doesn't really solve the problem of making money, but I could help budget a little bit.

Oops scratch my original post thought you needed fundraising ideas for your team not you- something that I recently started is selling my gently used clothes that I no longer wear on Vinted.com. There's also Threadflip and Poshmark. I've made over $200 already, you should check it out, could be a perfect option for you!

I think you should come up with some fun cheer activities that you could do for birthday parties post that in the gym. My CP when 5 had one of her junior coach come and teach the girls an easy routine and jumps. The girls loved it and I paid her. Another idea is offering privates if the coaches are okay with it. You could also work with a couple of other girls from the gym and create a mini camp - if someone has a big enough yard and house not far from the gym. Without mats etc you'd have to stay pretty basic level 1 stuff but you could really get creative with it. Get creative brainstorm with some of the others on the team and talk to the owner - maybe junior coach a team and get a discount.
