I was thinking about to this last Christmas.  Yes I know it’s February but I was thinking of how good this idea was.  My cousin does this for her school or church and they do it the last couple of weeks in November.  They have a fundraiser by selling gift cards.  It’s actually a pretty good idea.  She shows us a list with a ton of stores on them and the percentage profit they make off of each sale.

Might be something my soccer team could do this summer for a fundraiser.

What I really liked though, is that we could get a bunch of gift cards, help out my cousin with her trip and also have gifts to give away.

It’s almost that time of year again.  Yes Fundraisers abound.  There are everywhere, popping up left and right.  Wait, maybe I should say they are already here. 

So for our soccer team, we also need to raise money for operating expenses and tournaments, etc.  After I did some brainstorming I came up with a decent idea.  Why don’t we sell promotional products with our own team logo and name on them.  I would think this would sell better than raffle tickets (depending on the prizes) and more than oil change cards or those big coupon books (maybe).

Think about this for a second. Wouldn’t you rather have a product that lasts awhile or a candy bar, or coupons that lay around, etc? Yes I know candy bar’s are delicious, but the product will last longer

I will make sure I do a post about our products and/or fundraisers so you can all help my team succeed,
