Flamingo Fundraiser
The fundraiser requires its team members to not only like to have fun and create a little bit of mischief, but also to be able to meet and work at night.
The only material you need are pink lawn flamingos! The more birds you buy, the higher the shock value of its victims! (You can always buy other lawn decorations as well). In total, initial investments may come out to be a little over $100. However, you will be able to make this back and much more at the end of this fun event.
Once you have your lawn decorations, pick out your first victim! At night, sneak over to the house, and place the flamingos all across the lawn. Then place a ransom note that can be easily seen demanding a donation for the removal of the birds. You can either set a fixed amount, or decide to leave the donation amount up to each individual.
Once the ransom is paid, the victim family gets to pick the next family to get “attacked.” The process is then repeated until the group has reached their target fundraising amount.
You can always target more than one house at a time, which requires more flamingos, but can pay off more in the end.
Offering flamingo “insurance” at the beginning of this campaign is a good way to raise funds without the trouble of setup. Insurance will guarantee a house not to be flocked.
Cakewalk Fundraiser
The cakewalk fundraiser is a great fundraiser that allows the entire group to participate. It is also very fun and a relatively inexpensive way to raise money.
Ask several people to bring a cake to the event. Place the cakes along a table and a number next to each cake. For each cake, place a corresponding number into a container.
Start of the round: Participants can then buy tickets ($0.50 ~ $2.00) which will then be placed inside a box. The winner of the round will then draw a number from the cake jar and win that corresponding cake.
At the start of the next round, participant will then buy and purchase more tickets. Participants can purchase as many tickets as they wish.
You can allow winners of the round to pick the cake of their choice, instead of merely picking a cake at random.
Random Volleyball Games
Basketball teams are able to hold basketball tournaments that they can sell ticket and food items for fundraisers. Piggy-backing on this concept, you can introduce different volleyball games that friends and families can participate in.
Your supporters will most likely want to help you with your fundraising goals and by providing them with an activity or fundraising event that gets them involved in your sport is a great idea.
