This is a great family-friendly option with an entry fee and additional fundraising opportunities on the day of the event, juice sales, games, etc

4. Spring cleaning.

Clean out your closets and pantries this spring and organize a yard sale or donate to charitable causes. What was once old can now be new to someone else!

5. Plant Sale.

See if a local horticulturist would be willing to donate plants or a percentage of the proceeds. Plants are good for the environment and are a great way to raise money.

6. Gardening Class.

Products

1. Cotton Candy.

Creamy cotton candy dessert shots will remind you exactly of your favorite state fair food! Perfect for a spring fundraiser– easy and delicious.

2. Spring Smencils.

Comes in five distinct spring scents: cotton candy, bubble gum, jelly bean, sour apple, and tutti frutti. Not only do spring smencils make a great fundraiser but they are also environmentally friendly with each pen made of recycled newspaper.

3. Nuts.

While it’s impossible to protect yourself from the sun’s harmful rays at all times, nuts can help boost your defenses. Nuts, whether almonds, cashews, walnuts, or pumpkin seeds, have the ability to improve your skin, control your weight, and satisfy those nagging hunger pangs, making them an excellent spring fundraising idea.

4. Discount gift cards.

Discount cards, like Restaurant.com or Diner & Movie discount gift cards are excellent year-round fundraisers. However, if you run several fundraising events throughout the year, you might want to save the discount cards for the spring/summer because they don’t need to be refrigerated like some chocolate fundraisers or other food programs.

5. Fruit snack candies.

While Welch’Fruit Snacks are still candies, they are made with real fruits and contain vitamins A, C, and E, which work in tandem with the sun’s natural vitamin.
