fundraising events. During this period, schools will be

at some awesome homecoming fundraising ideas.
3. 1.
Massive
Garage Sale
You can ask permission for taking a large space like parking area for the event to
take place from the school administration. This will not even help in spring
cleaning but also will help you to achieve the goal for the 'Garage Sale'. You can
arrange some old equipment's from friends, family and your school to donate to
the cause.
4. 2.
Bargain
Basement
Evening Gowns
Ever looked at your closet? Don't have enough time to clean it, then this idea gives you
a great way of cleaning out your closet and raising some funds for this Homecoming
event.
You can ask for small donations from your neighbors and can make creative posters to
build up more interest in people for the event. The bridal shops or fashion designers
may help you as they may have garments which are no more useful to them.
Make sure there is a good space, full-length mirrors and refreshments like coffee, bagels,
donuts, bottled water for the huge event.
5. 3.
Raffles
Local businesses and vendors will be definitely willing to help your cause if you make these things
clear to them :
They must know the reason for your cause and the donations for which you are looking for. Ask local
businesses for gift items to raffle off. Raffle items can be anything either restaurant gift certificates, spa
treatments or electronics. This will be a good opportunity for them to showcase their business by
helping you with the donations you have asked for.
6. 4.
Traditional
Fund-Raisers
You can search out for other fund-raisers used as the bread and butter by school
organizations if you have lack of time. A winter gift wrap and candy fundraisers or a
community discount book fund-raiser will be perfect examples. If you can convince a
local vendor to host the event and in return he will have a percentage of their bill
donated back to the school will be the best option.
7. 5.
Talent Show
Hosting a talent show at the school auditorium is always a great idea as it will be full
of entertainment. Ask the participants for a donation to enter the contest. Guests and
judges can vote for their favorite act and they can also make a donation. A small prize
for a winner should be given to him for his talent and his contribution for the cause.
8. 6.
Car Washes
Car washes? Sounds great! Isn't it? Imagine washing cars will be so fun together
when you are doing with a large group of people. It is better if you arrange this
event at some local market so that more people participate and contribute to it. You
can create a banner and mention the cause for which you are doing this. People will
surely love this and make donations to it.
9. 7.
Homecoming
Flowers
Selling flowers will be a great way to celebrate homecoming week. For this
fundraising idea, you will need to contact a local florist. There are chances that some
florists may donate you the flowers and some will offer you to buy at a good
discounted price. Resell the flowers to collect a good amount for the event.
