Choosing the Best Fundraising Programs

If you're looking for some great fundraising programs, we've got some ideas to help you choose the perfect fundraiser for your organization. Whether you're trying to raise money for a church, school or other nonprofit organization, the right fundraising programs can make all the difference. Here are some ideas to get you started:

Candle Fundraisers

There are many candle fundraising programs out there. Scented candles are a tried and true fundraising item that many schools and churches have had great success with. People enjoy scented candles, and because they're affordable, many people choose to buy!

Magazine Fundraisers

Lots of people love magazines. There are great fundraising programs that involve selling magazine subscriptions. A magazine fundraising program is one that keeps on giving, as your customers will get their periodicals in the mail month after month!

Scratch Card Fundraisers

This is a fairly new idea in the world of fundraising programs but a popular one. With themed scratchcards, customers scratch off an area of the card to reveal the amount of money they are to donate. Upon the donation, they're presented with a valuable coupon book as a thank you.

Cookie Dough Fundraisers

Everyone likes cookies! With a cookie dough fundraiser, you'll be selling frozen containers of cookie dough in various flavors. This is a nice alternative to pre-baked cookies because customers can bake what they want and store the rest for later use.

Pizza Fundraisers

Who doesn't like pizza? A pizza fundraising program can be a great way to raise the money you need for your organization. Many pizza fundraising programs offer pizzas in different sizes with a choice of toppings.

Holiday Fundraisers

If your fundraiser is happening during the holiday season, why not try one of the many holiday themed fundraising programs? There are fundraisers where you can sell Christmas collectibles, gift wrap, seasonal gourmet foods, and much more!

Popcorn Fundraisers

Popcorn fundraising programs are popular because popcorn is healthy and affordable. There are lots of good programs available if you're interested in selling popcorn for your organization. The popcorn available today comes in various flavors to suit any palette or preference. Butter flavored, caramel, garlic, and low-fat are just some of the varieties you can offer with your popcorn fundraiser.
