Fundraising for Prom: The Perfect Fundraiser

Post Icon Posted on 07/13/2009
 

In recent years, many schools have started to put regulations on the types of items that can be sold on campus. From vending machines, to class Fundraisers, to the lunchroom, schools are cracking down on health standards in order to provide a healthier environment for students. While this is certainly a noble effort, it certainly makes it harder to find a great Fundraising-ideas.com'>Fundraiser.

When your school starts thinking of prom fundraisers, consider selling Jack Link's Beef Jerky. This fundraiser works just like its counterpart – candy. You buy the products by the case, and sell the items for $1 each. The difference is that the beef jerky will pass all inspections for health and nutrition, whereas candy will not. When getting approval from the administration, this fact alone is a major selling point.

Once you have the products, and are ready to begin your Prom Fundraiser, the most important thing to do is advertise. A fundraiser is no good if nobody knows you are doing it. Make posters, have announcements over the intercom, put up flyers – anything you can think to let people know when and where you will be selling Jack Link's Beef Jerky.

Another important thing is accessibility. Make sure that you have a prime spot to sell your products. With Jack Link’s, each person has a handy carrying case that will allow them to have it with them at all times. You will also want to have a general location where people can come to purchase the items. Set up a table in the cafeteria and let everyone know that they can support your prom fundraiser by coming over at lunch to buy some Jack Link's!
