Discount Cards provide tremendous value to

your supporters without any cost on you. You

make money, merchants get more sales, and your donors are making great

savings!

#2: Choose the Torment

Ask students, teachers, parents and staff in your group to make $1 donations as the price of a vote. They can then vote on the type of “torment” to inflict on the most well known teacher or staff member.

What kind of torment? Dying hair

the school color, or dressing up as a

clown for the whole day!

The classroom with the most donations

gets to submit a creative torment idea.

#3: No Stress Snack Bar

Buy snacks, drinks, and candy in bulk

Sell these goodies at full price at school events

Parent teacher days, sports games, field days, or after school

People love snacks, and they’d love supporting the school at the same time!

#4: Teacher Auctions

Step 1

This works well if the teachers at your school are well known by all students and parents.

Organize an event (you can make it around the holiday time or Valentine’s day) to auction off each teacher along with a “date” activity.

The teachers get to decide what special “date” they will offer – cooking lessons, personal science museum tour guide, private sports coaching!

#5: Mini-marathon or Mini Run

Use a online platform like Piggybackr to organize your students and

their donations.

Students get pledges from

their family and friends for each

lap they complete.

The goal is for each student to

do 32 laps around your

school or field.

Hold a mini-marathon or

fun run at your school.
