With kids out of school for the summer, parents are looking for things for them to do. At the same time, schools, sports teams, and charitable organizations are doing their best to keep up with their fundraising goals. Our team at Effective Fundraising Solutions has ready-to-go fundraising campaigns, and we can help you come up with great ideas for fundraisers for kids.
Support a good cause and teach the importance of giving back this summer with these fundraisers for kids.
Scavenger Hunt
Who doesn’t love a scavenger hunt? Have families register as groups or let people join as teams and charge a fee to participate. To encourage participation, offer prizes for teams that complete the scavenger hunt, with special prizes for the first teams to finish. To ensure that the prizes are enticing enough to encourage participation, ask local businesses to donate products or gift certificates.
Outdoor Family Movie Night
Bring the fun of going to the movies out into the open! Set up a projector in a local park or sports field and charge a small fee to come watch the movie. Offer a group rate for families and ask people to donate snacks for concessions. To encourage as many people as possible to come, pick a family-friendly movie, especially one that’s popular at the moment. For example, if there’s a sequel or a remake in the theaters, show the original movie while people are thinking about it!
DIY Tie-Dye Party
Plenty of adults have fond memories of tie-dyeing T-shirts, sweatshirts, or other items. Buy white T-shirts, sweatshirts, or cotton shorts in large quantities and ask people to donate in exchange for an item to tie-dye. You can also encourage participants to bring their own clothes or linens to tie-dye and ask for a donation to use the supplies. Take it a step further and have a contest for the best tie-dyed clothing with prizes donated by local businesses.
