By Tammie Caldwell


Fundraising is very important part of the education system, which raises money for schools to help their students pay for expensive field trips, yearbooks, and so much more. In addition to that, institutions need extra funds simply to provide activities to their students, and make their years more interesting through events. Below are some surefire high school fundraising ideas that can help students and staff alike be more successful in their efforts.

Some of the most popular fundraising efforts involve discount cards. The number one reason why they work so well is because the donor actually get something back for his donation. It can be a great discount on a good meal or a movie. The bottom line is that they're very valuable. However, it always depends on the company whether these discount cards are free or not, so shop around.

Some may even get discount cards from mobile phone carriers, in the form of prepaid cards or phones. Alternatively, some may even get great results from big retailers that are always looking for ways to give back to their community. Other clever ideas involve raffle tickets. Many local merchants are looking for new customers, so a good many of them can be on board to provide free meals, free haircuts or styles, manicures or pedicures, and so on.

Other successful campaigns could include sporting event tickets up for grabs on the raffle tickets. More and more, it's becoming increasingly difficult and expensive for average consumers to get their hands on such tickets, so it could be a successful campaign. The important thing is to choose the right campaign and put in the right amount of effort.

Be careful not to overdo the same campaign, as it will eventually grow tiresome and not achieve successful results. Therefore, it's recommended to make some important changes. For example, introduce crafts that would bring out the talent in numerous students that could actually paint. There could be an online auction to make it more interesting.

There are many people who would be proud to hang an original painting on their walls. Other talent can come through costume jewelry making. There are so many beautiful designs out there that many people would love to wear. Those making them only require good quality beads and a few other materials to make attractive and trendy necklaces, earrings, anklets and the like. Moreover, there are the all-important snack stalls that could be a campaign with great success.

It's easy enough to prepare tasty snacks that can be sold in a high traffic location that will generate a good amount of sales. This way, students stay in one location, and customers come to them. The important thing is to make them look enticing.

A car wash is still a popular option as a campaign. However, a successful campaign requires the weather be cooperative. Today's technology allows for people to judge accordingly just what type of weather they're going to experience over the next week or two. For a successful campaign, keep it going for several days, choosing a high-volume location.
