Answer:
3 ways you can collect money for a charity at your school. or a Walk-a-Thon, Off the screen challenge, or a cook-off (bake-off).
For a Walk-a-Thon, have members pledge to walk 10,000 steps a day over a certain time frame in exchange for sponsorships. Get students to create individual fundraising pages or split them into teams and give each student/team a goal to reach. First, decide what you want to accomplish. Then, set an overall fundraising goal for the campaign. For best results, tie your monetary goal to your overall fundraising goals.
For an Off the screen challenge, students are sponsored for spending time away from all of their devices like phones, laptops, iPads, etc. This isn’t only a unique school fundraiser, but also a fantastic way to get students spending time outdoors. This school fundraiser is also very easy to organize. There’s very little setup needed and if you organize it all online, it’s incredibly quick.
Finally for a Cook-off or Bake-off, Have the participants sign up in advance and bring in their specialties to the event. Form a team of judges, and if you can, get a local celebrity chef to join in, this will create more excitement around the event and draw in more attendees. Advertise across the board to get more people to attend your event and have a local business donate a desirable prize for the winning participant. Consider having other items for sale as well to raise more funds that match the food you’ve chosen for the competition. For example, if it’s a cookies bake-off, you could sell hot chocolate and warm milk. If it’s a chili cook-off, you could sell nachos.
