School Fundraising Ideas & Fundraisers Wowfundraising.com is designed to be the leading source of school fundraising ideas and successful organizaion and school fund raisers on the internet. We have compiled the definitive list of 21 Must-See Fundraisers that prove to be the hottest and most profitable organization and school fundraising solutions available. We understand that your school or group may have unique needs so we also carry a very deep and comprehensive list of school fundraising ideas and alternatives. There are several differerent types of organization and school fundraising programs that you need to consider before making your final choice. Here is a quick breakdown of the major types of organization and school fund raisers for you to consider. 1. In Hand Selling also known as Direct Sale Fund Raisers. This is one of the simplest types of fundraising. Basically, you buy a fundraising product like candy bars, lollipops, beef snacks, smencils or anything else. Then you go sell them. You make your profit on the markup of the items you are selling. Usually you are going to make anywhere from 30% to 50% of the sales price of your items. We carry the most popular school fundraising in hand items such as smencils, candy bars, lollipops, 2 year planners, etc. All available to be purchased online. The majority of our school fund raising in hand sellers start at 50% profit, require only a one case minimum order and are shipped for FREE anywhere in the contiguous United States. Take a look at the list below: (Just click on a link to get all of the details) • Dollar Bar Candy Bars • Brand Name Candy Bars • Lollipop • Beef Snacks • Smencils • Candy • Wristbands • Popcorn • 2-Year Planners • Other Fundraising Ideas 2. Pre-Sale Fundraisers also known as Brochure Sales or Order Takers. For a pre-sale fundraiser the members of your group will use a product brochure with an order taker to take orders (pre-sale) from customers and supporters ahead of time. We recommend that you collect the money at the time the order is placed to avoid collection issues later. After you have completed the "pre-sales" phase of your fundraiser, all of the products are shipped to you "to the piece" so you are not stuck with extra products that have not been paid for. Once you receive the products, it's time for your sellers to distribute the items to their customers. For the BEST possible fundraising experience, we make sure all of the items are pre-packed for each of your sellers. This means that the items each of your participants sold will already be boxed and labeled with their names. You don't have to do ANY sorting and separating of products, just find each participant and hand them the box(es) labeled with their names. This makes distribution day VERY SIMPLE and avoids possible errors that occur during the distribution day rush. This is the best option if you need a fundraiser with No Upfront Costs. When you book your next group or school fundraiser with Wow Fundraising, this is what we will do for you: • FREE Brochures, Order Takers, Kick off letters, and Collection Envelopes for ALL of your sellers. • FREE Pre-Packing. We will pack all items per seller for easy distrbution. • FREE Delivery with LOW MINIMUMS. • FREE Prize Program for your sellers. If you don't need a prize program, we will give you 3% additional profits. • FREE Order Processing. We total and tally all orders. • FREE Shipping on all brochures. We send them to you for FREE and give you a pre-paid UPS slip to return them. We offer a wide range of Order Takers for you to choose from including: • Gourmet Cookie Dough • Cheesecakes • Pizza • Frozen Food Fundraising Ideas • Non Frozen Foods Fund Raising Ideas • Candles • Flower Bulbs and Seeds • Trash Bags 3. Donation Programs. This is probably the oldest form of fundraising. If you need money, you just ask people to give you some. Asking for donations has taken many forms (direct solicitaion, donations by mail, donations by phone, online donations and more). A very popular donation program available is the Scratch Card. Scratch Cards can return HIGH (VERY HIGH) profits if your group is motivated. Scratchcards work best if your participants are comfortable asking for donations. The program is simple and provides a way to assist your organization in asking for donations in a fun and organized way. Here's the basic concept. Each participant gets a scratch card with a book of coupon sheets. Each card has 50 scratch off dots that when scratched reveal the supporters donation amount. People love to scratch the dots and you will often get people to scratch several. Once your supporter has made their donation they receive a coupon sheet valued at over $150.00 as a thank-you. If you would like more detailed information visit our scratchcard page. 4. Discount Cards. Sell a card that has discounts for other places. One of the biggest is the Papa John's Pizza Card. Cards usually sell for $10.00 and you get half of the money. Helping your group raise the funds to meet your goals is our top priority. Our business was built by helping groups of all sizes raise funds for a multitude of needs. We've helped raise money for playground equipment, travel expenses, building funds, new uniforms, sports equipment, band gear, tournament fees, medical research, cancer cures, missionaries, field trips, prom, tsunami victims, disaster relief and more.

High School Fundraising Ideas Fund Raising with a more mature audience may require a more mature product. Smencils may sell but are not typically not the top seller for High Schools. Some High School Fundraising Ideas would include Candy Bars and Jack Link's Beef Jerky. If you are looking into running a brochure sale, the Simply Delicious works real well. Middle School Fundraising Ideas The transition phase between Elementary School and High School is pretty open to any fundraising item. Smencils still sell real good and may be combined with Scented Bookmarks for a wonderful blend of scented products. Elementary School Fundraising Ideas Brochure Sale Fundraising works real well in Elementary Schools as when working with children, parents tend to get involved. A great Elementary School Fundraising Idea for a brochure sale would be our Extravaganza! This program offers many free services and public schools qualify for instant credit terms. If one is interested in a direct sale product, Smencils are the number one seller in Elementary Schools. The kids love the scents and we always have the schools coming back for more!
