With many schools encouraging students to play this game, football fundraising activities are a common phenomenon. It is important to choose the fundraising idea which will best serve your purpose. Each team will have different requirements for funds and hence, before you start implementing an idea, you should have a clear estimate of how much money you want to generate and its feasibility.

Let us now look at a few football fundraising ideas to use for your fundraiser:

·         Candy and bake sale –Start with buying candy in bulk so that you get them at a cheaper price. This way you can sell smaller boxes of candy by increasing the price by $1 or more.When you tell people that you are selling candy to help support the local football team or for your school fundraiser many of them will gladly help you. The baked items can be sold in a stall at a pre-determined venue and could be held at your school, any store, etc. You would have to take permission from the owners of the venue to make sure that they aren’t inconvenienced by the bake sale.

·         Scratch cards – Contact a coupon booklet seller and buy a pack of coupons. These coupons have the cost printed on them but is hidden under black ink. You would have to scratch the ink off the coupon to reveal the cost so that the person who is donating knows the cost of the coupon. Once that person buys the coupon, he or she could win anything between 50 cents to $3. The coupons inside the booklet are usually worth $40. With this activity, there is a guaranteed return of 90%.

·         Pizza cards – You can get these pizza discount cards from popular outlets. These cards can be sold for a fixed price. The person who buys the pizza cards is entitled to several offers from the pizzeria like a free slice or a free pizza or free extra topping, etc. This fundraising idea can be very effective as there will be many restaurants/pizzerias that will be willing to offer such discounts with the aim of getting potential new customers to their restaurant.
