Pizza card fundraisers can be sold to anyone who is a pizza lover.
To offset the cost of activities, many organization participate in fundraising. Some of the advantages of doing card fundraisers are that the product is light, non-perishable, and can be used at the customer's discretion. Unlike candy, that might melt, a car wash, where it might rain, or wrapping paper, that costs a lot of money to ship, card fundraisers have none of those potential pratfalls. The cards can also be sold to a large customer base.
Discount Cards
Discount cards allow the purchaser to receiver discounts at local area businesses. These discounts can range from a wide variety of businesses such as restaurants, movie theaters, printing companies and floral boutiques among others. The discount card manufacturer will provide you with a form that needs to be filled out by the local business. After receiving or downloading those forms, contact local businesses and ask them if they want to participate. The more businesses that participate, the more money you can charge for the discount cards. Submit the paperwork to the discount card manufacturer and have the cards printed. Members of your organization can then sell them for a pre-set price. Payment to the manufacturer is based on the amount of cards you order. Usually, the more you order, the cheaper the price to produce each card.
Greeting Cards
Whether it is someone's birthday, the holidays, or just dropping a line to a friend, people use greeting cards throughout the year. Contact a company that organizes greeting card fundraisers. The company will provide you with a catalog of the products. Members of your organization can then take orders from members of the community on the various greeting cards they want to purchase. Once the order is placed, the greeting card company ships the order to the recipients. Generally, greeting card fundraisers provide a 50 percent profit margin for the fundraising organization.
Pizza Cards
Because card fundraising is popular, there are several companies on the market, such as Easy Fundraising Ideas, that have a list of pizza restaurants throughout the country that have already agreed to participate in a pizza discount card. After signing-up through the program, you simply select the pizza restaurants in your area. The cards are printed, and you can sell them for a preset price. If there is a pizza restaurant in your area that is not listed, you can provide the restaurant with the consent form to become part of the program. The company the prints the fundraiser cards may even give you some additional cards since you brought the restaurant a new client.
Scratch Card Fundraisers
A scratch card fundraiser allows the members of your organization to interact with your community. After approaching a member of the community who agrees to make a donation, he scratches one dot on the card. Under each space there is a value between $1 and $5. Whatever number is revealed is the amount he will donate. The member of the organization then collects the money. Scratch cards have a preset cost and maximum donation value. For example, it might cost $20 for each card, but the card might raise $100 if all the dots have been scratched off.
