1 17 Quick and Easy Fundraising Ideas for Small Groups Raise Money For Clubs Raise Money For Sports Teams Raise Money For Families Raise Money With Crowdfunding

2 Walkathons Since walkathons are smaller scale marathons, they are the perfect fundraising idea for small groups. Your club and other community members can participate in your fundraiser. Walkathons do, however, require signi cant planning, so organize your event well in advance. Make sure to pick a location for your event and recruit volunteers to help set up and register participants. Raise even more money for your event by selling branded products or hosting a ra e at the end of your walkathon.

3 Car Wash If your small group needs to raise funds, you can host a car wash. Chance are your club or organization has enough members to run and promote this classic event. For this fundraiser, you ll need to get car cleaning supplies like sponges, buckets, and soap. You and your team members should also create signs. Have a few of your team members stand beside the road and draw attention to your car wash with your handmade posters.

4 Best Seat in the House Fundraiser Part of a sports team or performance? You can use the best seat in the house fundraiser to collect money for your team. The best seat in the house fundraiser is like a traditional ra e, but the winner gets two tickets to your game or play. Encourage more supporters to participate, by offering free concessions to the winners in addition to their prime seats.

5 Writing Letters Writing letters is a simple way to raise money for your small group. You can send letters to friends, families, corporations, and foundations to ask for general donations, sponsorships, and so much more! Genuine, personal letters will help connect readers to your cause, so always start with the donor s name and reference any past relationships if possible. Additionally, you can use letters to direct people to your crowdfunding campaign, but you should also include a self-addressed envelope within your letter for those who want to send checks. Sell Products Selling products is always a sure re way to raise money for any cause. Donors will love getting the chance to purchase useful items like t-shirts, water bottles, and hats to support your small group. Take this fundraiser one step further and brand your items to match your team, club, or group. That way, supporters can promote your group every time they use or wear your items. You ll need to nd a wholesale provider where you can design and purchase your merchandise. Look for a company that doesn t require you to buy a lot of products at once, so you don t risk having too many items.

6 Bake Sale Bake sales are tried-and-true fundraising ideas for practically any cause because who can resist a delicious treat? Your small group can use this fundraising idea to raise money for supplies and trips. Since this is such a popular fundraising idea, plan your bake sale with a twist like creating a theme for all your baked goods. Set up shop in a well-tra cked area and don t forget to promote your fundraiser a few days before to generate even more interest and excitement.

7 Reverse Ra e Everyone has heard of a ra e, but have you heard of a reverse ra e? Essentially, the concept is the same, but instead of the winner being the rst ticket drawn, the winner is the last ticket! Reverse ra es work best in conjunction with other events, like carnivals, ice cream socials, or other situations where you have a large group of people. For this fundraiser, you ll need an awesome prize to motivate donors to participate. Partner with a local business or ask a major donor to donate the prize.

8 Penny Drive A penny drive is an inexpensive and easy way to raise money. For this fundraiser, you ll need to set up containers in well-tra why you re fundraising. cked areas and let people know Donors can give spare change as well as dollars they don t just have to give pennies! You many not raise a huge amount for your cause, but it s an effective way to spread the word about why you re fundraising. Your small group can even turn your penny drive into a competition to see who can raise the most money!

9 Bowl-A-Thon A bowl-a-thon is a family friendly-fundraising idea that can bring the whole community together to help you raise funds for your small group. Partner with a local bowling alley and ask them to donate a percentage of the night s proceeds to your cause or project. You can encourage people to come by sharing the event on social media and posting yers around the community. Obstacle Course Event Who doesn t love a challenge? You can create an obstacle course event to raise funds for any cause. Kids, teenagers, and even adults will love the chance to show off their skills. Your small group can create different games and challenges to make your obstacle course. Create an online registration form so donors can sign up for the event. Give participants the option to complete the course as individuals or in teams. Make sure to have a small prize for the person or group that gets through the course rst.

10 Recycling Drive A simple yet effective fundraising idea for small groups is to host a recycling drive. Not only will you raise money for your cause, but you can also improve the environment as well. Ask donors to sponsor your drive by giving a certain amount (like $0.05-$0.10) for every item that you recycle. Collect sponsorships from family members, friends, and community members and start cleaning up your neighborhood.

11 Painting Party A painting party is a fun family-friendly fundraising idea for small groups. For this fundraiser, you can partner with a local painting store or organize the event yourself. You and your team members will need to get supplies like paint, canvases, and easels for your event. Use online and o ine outlets to promote your event and encourage your guests to bring their entire family to your painting party for a fun night of art.

12 Garage Sale If you ve got some items you no longer need, why not plan a garage sale to raise money for your cause or project? Ask all your group members to bring in books, technology, clothes, and other items they no longer want. You can have the garage sale at one of your houses. Make sure that you promote your event in advance so that you can get even more people interested in your campaign. Karaoke Night Karaoke is a fun pastime for people of all ages, and you can partner will a local coffee shop or restaurant to host a night of singing. Your karaoke night will require some equipment, but don t go and buy what you need. See if you have any friends that can loan you their karaoke machine.

13 Scavenger Hunt A scavenger hunt is a great way to raise funds for your small group. Plus, supporters of all ages can participate and enjoy the event. Create a course, hide items around your community, and write out your clues. You should also nd a prize for the winner(s). Charge a small fee for those who want to participate and charge a little more for groups because the scavenger hunt will be easier with more people.

14 Envelope Fundraiser Looking for a simple and inexpensive way to raise money? The envelope fundraiser is a great solution because it has the potential to raise a lot of money for your cause. Here s how it works: buy a package of envelopes and number each one (from 1 to 100). Hang them up in a central location at your school or community center. People can donate by choosing an envelope and giving the amount on the front. With 100 envelopes, you have the potential to raise over $5,000 for your cause!

15 Give-It-Up Fundraiser The give-it-up fundraiser is a great way for your small group to unite and raise funds. This fundraiser is simple and doesn t require any money to organize. We all have our small indulgences like a coffee drink in the morning or going to the movies every week. By not spending money on these things for a few months, your team members can use the money towards your cause. But it doesn t just have to be your team members; have friends and family get in on the challenge as well!
