We all know that we can’t drop the ball on school fundraisers in the summertime. But when you’re running a fundraiser in the summer, it can be hard to get people enthusiastic about and involved in your fundraising efforts. There are plenty of ways to spread the word to your community, but you also need a fundraiser that people can get excited about. At Effective Fundraising Solutions, we have several campaigns that have a track record of popularity. But few have taken off like our Flower Power fundraiser!
Here’s why summer is the perfect time to run a Flower Power fundraiser.
Our minds are on the outdoors.
Now that summer is finally here, we’re all spending more time outside. And when you’re outside, you’re taking a closer look at your gardens and landscaping. Many people aren’t completely satisfied with the way their gardens look, and planting bulbs is a great way to add some color and beauty to your yard. By running a Flower Power fundraiser, you can help people beautify their yards, and they get to support a good cause!
You’ll have bulbs in time to plant.
There’s a right to plant every type of flower. For bulbs, that time is the fall. Running a Flower Power fundraiser in the summer means that every who purchases bulbs will have them in the fall in time to plant. You will still have to wait until spring to see the flowers come up, but it will be worth the wait!
Foster a love of gardening in your kids.
Some kids are natural gardeners and love getting outside in the dirt. Other kids need a little encouragement. Cultivating a garden with your kids and showing them how their work helps the plant grow will foster in them a love of the outdoors and growing things. Planting a garden is a rewarding experience that teaches kids the value of patience and hard work. Whether you grow vegetables or flowering plants, starting with bulbs from a Flower Power fundraising can start a lifelong love of gardening.
