coach, we put our own fundraiser on. Through Kinkos, we get credit card sized cards printed with our schedule on one side and deals from local establishments on the other side good for one year. We sell them at $10 a card. The price for the printing and the card itself probably varies depending on where you live. Each kids is asked to sell a minimum of 10 cards, and have a cash grab for those who sell a benchmark number of cards. We give them a day and a half to sell them. We have a pizza party when they turn in any unsold cards and money.

IT CAN BE DONE

Great idea if you have the money to front it....if not...check out www.varsitygold.com

They have been great and offer a similar program where they upfront the money to get started and have other proven successful fundraising ideas.

You can never have enough fund raising ideas!

Good Luck!

Coach
Lift a thons are always good. Get donations for each pound lifted. We are also having a Madden 2004 tournament. We also sell the aforementioned cards. Sell t-shirts, highlight tapes, sweatshirts, etc. Sell advertisement banners for your home field if your district allows that. Do a program to sell. Just some ideas...

CASINO NIGHT. America has a gambling problem. Take it from a coach who coaches at a very poor catholic school.
