Product Fundraising Works
MCM Fundraising has some suggestions that may help your group increase revenues next fundraising season. We have found great success selling exceptional products that everyone enjoys, because product fundraising works! According to the Association of Fund-Raising Distributors and Suppliers, more than 75% of Americans agree: “Product fundraising sales are an important financial resource for America’s schools and youth programs.” It is not uncommon for the school to run between five and ten campaigns per year.
School Fundraising Success Tips:
Involve the Principal of your school. Professional fundraising companies report that the principal is in the best position to provide valuable experience and historical perspective to parent volunteers charged with selecting a fundraiser. Principals should participate in setting fundraising goals and monitoring the fundraising schedule.
Tell your supporters how their money is being spent. When parents know where their dollars are going, they tend to purchase more products to support the cause. In face, nearly a third of patrons who would not have otherwise participated will engage when they know what is at stake.
Hold fewer fundraisers. Schools that reduce the number of fundraising events profit from focusing on the programs that are most successful. There is a real risk of burdening busy parents with so many requests for support that they just ignore them. Fundraising experts recommend that principals work with their parent groups and faculty to focus on those fundraisers that can make the most money with the least time commitment from volunteers.
MCM Fundraising is your committees’ partner and we kick off your program together. We take the guesswork out of publicizing your drive, show you how to manage a social media campaign, and furnish plenty of ideas to motivate your teams.
