Everyone always talks about high school fundraising ideas, but very few people think about fundraising for colleges. However, once you get to college and join a sorority or a fraternity or any type of group for that matter, you will realize that fundraising isn’t just for high school and churches. If you are new to college and the idea of college fundraising, here are some fundraising ideas for your approval.
Fresh Fundraising Idea, even in college is to sell Otis Spunkmeyer cookies at a bake sale. Nobody ever gets too old for cookies, and a bake sale can bring in tons of money for student activities.
Dance Marathon
A dance marathon is one of the best, and one of the most fun, ways to raise money for anything to do with college. You don’t need a whole lot of money to host the event, just a dance venue, and some people to make up signs and form a decoration committee. This is the perfect fundraiser for a sorority. People who sign up will pay an entrance fee, and the winning couple gets a trophy.
Bracelets
Fundraiser bracelets are inexpensive to have made up and can be sold for a $1 at every other fundraising event you have that year. They just have the name of the school and can come in many designs and colors. It just adds a little extra to the coffers and are perfect to combine with other ways of raising money.
Date Auction
This type of fundraiser is great for the college scene. What college student wouldn’t want to take part in a date auction? This is also an entertaining way to raise money, as everyone gets to auction off their friends. It’s cool to see how much each person will go for, and the money is all the schools to keep. This works for fraternities and sororities well and can even be a combined effort.
If you are looking for some fresh fundraising ideas for college then these are some of the best there are. Add your own to the mix, and the year should be off to a great start.
