Fundraisers for a dance school for competition/travel?

Question

My dance school is trying to think of fundraisers to do since we have a lot of dances going to various competitions this year? Our teams range from ages 5 - 17. Us older girls dislike tagging because it makes us feel like we are begging for change. We are looking for ones that would raise alot of money, not just standard ones. We have sold chocolates, car washes and sold flowers. We cannot sell magazines. I would say there is about 15 girls on competition currently.

Also, our dance teacher has mentioned a trip to Disney World to dance there. We are all excited knowing that we couldn't afford nationals this year so we would really love to go. If you have any ideas or anything that makes alot of money let me know please and thank you so much in advance.

- I have heard of the penny campagin idea but im not sure how to take it on, I heard it makes quite alot of money.

Answer 1

My Dance School Went To Disney World Last Year & For Fundraising We Sold Chocolates, Held Raffles, Had a Pie Drive, Held A Fashion Show  (Just Of Our Studio Uniform).. Things Like That.

Answer 2

Do your car wash or fundraising at a location that would be willing to match your raised monies. My dance team got wal-mart to agree to helping us.

ALSO, discountdance.com has help for fundraising: http://www.discountdance.com/frame_set.p...

Good luck and congrats on having 15 girls competing!

The company I work with has some options that might help your school if you would like. Our products give you 30 days in most cases before payment is due to get the sales rolling, and we don't charge for shipping unless you need to rush the order. We have scratch & help cards, spinners, cookie dough, and more! One of our best options is a web based promo fundraiser page that doesn't cost you anything at all (ever) to set up and use.
