There are MANY fundraising opportunities with merchandise sales. You can do a search online to find those. Food seems to do really well – frozen cookie dough, frozen pizzas/pretzels, etc. Some local home sales folks usually do fundraising too – Tupperware, Avon, Longaberger, Home Interior, Home and Garden, etc. Raffles are sometimes a good thing, however you have to solicit for donations for prizes. Basket Bingo is big around here, but it is a lot of work. Just make sure if you decide to sell product, you choose the one with the best percentage return!

I’m not sure how many families you have raising money, but you may take a poll and some my wish to just donate a set amount of money as opposed to selling stuff to all of their neighbors, family and friends. I know I’d rather pay than sell every two months!!

Best of luck to you and to your preschool!!

You could go with some of the big party style companies and use Tupperware, Partylite, and even Yankee Candles, and prob Pampered Chef to do your fundraising. There are other companies that sell those cookie doughs, or Christmas stuff. But if you have the time, a kids clothing/stuff consignment sale where your preschool families (and the public) can tag/hang/ and sell their stuff and your school gets a portion. Multiple, well spaced, (meaning throughout the year) fundraisers are great ways to earn extra money. You could have a Harvest Festival, where you sell tickets to games, and a silent auction on stuff donated from local businessess.

Go with a fundraising event. Car washes and bake sales only make so much, and you’d have to dedicate weekend after weekend to make $5k. A fall carnival with games and food would work well. Check here for how to put a fundraising event together:

1.If many of the people involved in the program are Internet savvy go to schoolpop.com and sign the program up. It is a shopping site with links to hundreds of shopping sites. If you shop through them the center gets a percentage.

2. Offer care on Saturdays once or twice a month for an extra fee. Working parents sometimes value a chance to shop and run errands on Saturday mornings with out the kids. You’ll have to pay the staff but should still make money.

3. If the Center has a kitchen and prepares meals for the kids offer take-home dinners once or twice a month. The parents would place their orders in the morning and pick them up when they pick up the kids.

One fun idea is to have all of the kids make some type of art project. Even the little guys can do this with finger paints… The older kids can be more detailed. Have each child make a contribution or two. For the paitings and pictures keep them smaller sizes, no bigger than 8×10, that way you can go to Walmart or any dollar store and get frames. They have some super cute ones for really cheap. Then you can have a silent auction. Label each project with a number and then have the teachers and staff monitor the silent auction. It’s fun and gives the kids a sense of pride!

If you are planning to start on your woodworking project, this isn’t something you should use, it’s something that you would be insane not to. Go here https://tr.im/ManualOfWoodworking

Truth is, I’ve been a carpenter for almost 36 years, and I haven’t found anything like this for less than 10’s of thousands of dollars.

Go to some schools and ask the head-teachers if they would put adverts up and give speaches of encouragement for them to raise money for your charity.

If you spoke to say 10 schools, all of which having 300 children; then if each child’s parent gave $1; you would have a total amount of $3,000. Of course although some people may not give, some people may give 5 or $10 or more.

The employees could order those big fundraiser candy boxes and sell them. Have a car wash at a CVS or something
