25 All-Time Best Fundraising Ideas
25 All-Time Best Fundraising Ideas
1. Children’s Art Work
Incorporating children’s artwork into fundraising products is a winning formula – lasting memories are made, special gifts are created and money is generated for worthy causes. Kids just get so proud to see their creations made into something special. The speciality fundraising companies will send you the art paper and instructions, and all you need to do is get the cherubs to work their magic! This type of fundraiser can also work well for photos.

Engraved bricks and pavers are a personal favourite of mine – I’m a sucker for symbols. They are perfect fundraisers for building campaigns or events celebrating milestones.

10. 5 Cent Drive
Pretty much everyone has a handful of 5 cent pieces just hanging around at home. Why not give those lonely coins a purpose and run a 5 cent drive at your school. Each class competes to see who can raise the most and the drive can run anywhere from a couple of weeks to a whole term.
Reward the winning class with a pizza party or whatever you think will tickle their fancy. Your best results will come from making your cause known – whether it be upgrading technology or purchasing playground equipment – if people know what they are contributing to, they are more likely to participate. If you want to boost your results, don’t limit your request to 5 cent pieces and call it a “Loose change challenge”.

11. Environmental Fundraiser
There is a growing trend to try and make events ‘greener’ and more environmentally friendly. Sometimes it only takes a few little changes which can often be easier than you’d think.
Where children are involved in the fundraising, the more they relate to the cause, the more powerful your fundraiser will be.
Options include a no-waste lunchbox (or drink bottle) fundraiser, or a tree-planting fundraiser that will have a real impact for the environment.

13. Sponsorship
Finding sponsors can be key to help you reach your fundraising goals by filling the gaps and sharing the costs of an event. It can be challenging but if you’re successful it can make a big difference to your end result. Sponsorship is an ideal opportunity for local businesses to promote themselves to an audience that they may not have otherwise reached or indeed their target audience.
There are many ways to find sponsors: grants are available through many avenues and amounts will vary depending on the source, good old door to door visits – this can be a particularly useful method if you have the time and it can be harder for them to say when they’re face to face, emailing a sponsorship proposal is a much more time efficient but you will need to follow up, advertise for sponsors in your own newsletters or social media – you may be surprised at the resources you can find in your own backyard.

15. Raffles
Raffles are the ‘go to’ for fundraising. They are easy to run and can either be run on their own or incorporated into just about any other fundraising event as an add-on fundraiser. People are usually happy to shell out a few dollars on raffle tickets to support a good cause. The key to a successful raffle is to sell your tickets as far and wide as possible. It also helps to have a great prize (hopefully a donated one!). Put a flyer together with a photo or description of the prize so that people can see what they are in the running for and away you go! Advertise your raffle tickets in newsletters, community notice boards and social media to increase your reach. There are also online providers who can run your raffle for you if you don’t have the time or the volunteers. You can also design and print your own tickets online to personalise them to your needs.
Raffles are classified by all Australian States and Territories as ‘gaming’ and, alongside casinos and licensed clubs, raffles are subject to regulation designed to protect the consumer, and the people conducting the gaming. Before you run a raffle it’s of the utmost importance that you check your state’s regulatory body raffle rules to avoid accidentally breaking any gaming laws. Check them here.

16. Free Dress Days
All sorts of organisations have ‘dress down day’, ‘free dress day’, ‘mufty day’, or ‘casual Friday’. There a staple fundraiser purely because all the organisers have to do is make sure they get their message out before the day and remember to collect the money.
There are heaps of variations on the usual idea of paying to come in your clothes of choice. Add a theme e.g. Book Character during Book Week or racegoer on Melbourne Cup Day or link free dress day to the lead-up of school fete preparations and ask children to bring a specific item needed for the fete (such as can of drink or cake mix) in exchange for free dress. This is a great way to increase your fete donations!
Workplaces have adopted the dress down day as a charity fundraiser, wearing jeans or a colour or pyjamas, according to charity theming. Some schools also run free dress days to support a charity or cause that they are passionate about and it’s a great life lesson to teach our kids to give back when they can. Get the students involved by asking the student council to nominate their cause for the donations to go to.

17. Discos
Discos can be a big source of revenue for any school. For primary schools it is generally best to run two discos – one for the junior school early in the evening, followed by one for higher grades. Charge a reasonable entry fee and make extra money from ancillary sales – glow sticks and LED products, soft drinks or bottled water and some food.
High school audiences can be more demanding: get the student leaders involved in planning a theme or music. Parent volunteers are always needed for refreshments, cloakroom and security. As a general rule, children do not leave the hall during the disco and must be collected by an adult.

You can never have too many socks. It’s a proven fact! Ok, maybe it’s just a good guess, but sock fundraisers have been around for a while.

Sausages sizzles are extremely popular as fundraisers and it doesn’t matter what the time of year, you can’t go past a sausage and onion on bread. They are also extremely versatile – whether it be for a school function, sports day, school disco, game day at your local sports club or even a Bunnings community BBQ. They are relatively low cost, easy to run and can be quite profitable.
Make sure you have current public liability and familiarise yourself with Safe Food Handling regulations. Try combining your sausage sizzle with add-on fundraisers such as a raffle, cake/bake sale and/or a coffee cart to boost your revenue.

The Art Show is an increasingly popular fundraiser – where an entire class will create a combined work of art to auction off at a fete or other fundraising function.

23. Trivia Nights
A trivia night can put the ‘fun’ into fundraising. It’s a great excuse to get your community together, have some laughs and raise those all-important funds. You can opt for a themed night, for example, 80’s trivia questions only with the option of fancy dress and best dressed prizes. Themes are only limited by your imagination but of course, they are not essential.
Having a great MC makes for a great night. Sponsorship and prize donations will increase your profits so make sure you ask! Run raffles through the night and have a selection of games that people can pay to participate in – lucky squares, coin toss, head and tails, handbag scavenger hunt, balloon relays, who am I? and the list goes on.
‘Cheating’ can be a very profitable and fun activity for trivia nights if presented in the right way. Cheating involves being able to ‘buy’ correct answers or certain advantages in activities throughout the evening. The ability to ‘cheat’ needs to be declared (and promoted!) up front. Everyone needs to fully understand the rules and how they can participate.

24. Passive Fundraising
I call it background fundraising, others call it passive fundraising, and they involve a benefit to your organisation when somebody purchases or takes some other desired action (eg test drives a certain car). These loyalty programs require a one-time sign-up, communicating the offer to your families and the occasional reminder in your newsletters or via email. They are ongoing and can provide handy extra income. You can be signed up to any number at the one time.

25. Cake Stalls
Cake stalls or bake sales are a ‘must have’ for fetes or fairs and they can generate surprisingly large profits. They are low cost and easy to run and set up. All you need is the generous donations from your community of cakes, muffins, biscuits, slices, chocolate crackles and so on. Use the time of year to your advantage – Easter, Halloween, Christmas – and include items that incorporate your theme.
Cake stalls appeal to a wide audience particularly if you have plenty of variety and you can combine your cake stall with a sausage sizzle or coffee cart to draw more people in. Make sure that your audience knows what you are raising money for by creating signs as well as talking to your customers – they are more likely to buy when they have a reason.
