Pledge Fundraising Ideas

[Zetagymnast]

I am in charge of the pledge process and I need ideas for fundraising. Can anyone help me???

Try www.campusfundraiser.com that come if you have 10 or more pledges/members. Our new members and actives fundraise together, I don't know how u do it. Anyway, this is a good company.

I know about that website already, but i was wondering if anyone had any really creative ideas that I could use. The pledge class does some fundraising on their own and some with the active sisters. Thanks.

We recently did a soup sale in the music building. We offered about 3 different kinds of soup, and charged like $1.00 for a cup of soup. We sold out within an hour!

Also, another fundraiser our chapter is probably going to do is selling flavored lip balms from lipteasers.com Another chapter of SAI told me about it. You buy whatever flavors you want for $1.00 each, and sell them for whatever you want. And you get to return all unsold lip balms for a full refund. I think it'd be a pretty easy sell, most girls are addicted to lip balm. I know I am!

Thanks for the help, I will check out that website.

What about a camp-a-thon or a rock-a-thon? Several of the groups on my campus did stuff like that.

How about recycling inkjet cartridges, used cell phones and toner cartridges? My company RecycleFirst, offers cash for these items. The program is easy, costs you nothing, takes only a little time and generates ongoing revenue. Web-based ordering of supplies, custom support for your program and did I mention free and easy?

A lot of pledge classes on my campus did car washes. Not sure if this is the creative idea you were looking for but it's a great money-maker. Just set yourself up at a popular place on campus. I use to love it because it was so much cheaper than getting my car professionally done and better for the paint than a gas station car wash. Plus, it was a great way to meet people.

What about selling Greek Lettered Sweatshirts to other organizations on campus? PM me for more details.

Well, the pleding process is not over and so it the school year and we are gearing up for next year. What are some fundraising ideas that we could use in terms of weather conditions, eg. Summer ideas, Fall ideas, etc. I want to come with some ideas that other sororities have not used. I think the lip gloss thing is really good.

we did a fundraiser where we collect old cell phones and recycled them. Apparently you get like a buck for each old school cell phone and then they also take accessories and whatnot. the cell phones are then donated, reworked and given to less fortunate countries.

i don't know how much money we made off of it but it's good if you have cells from the 80s - early 90s that you have no use for.
