Lightbulb School Fundraiser ideas

We offer a very effective fundraiser with 100% profit and NO investment except the effort put into collecting used cell phones and empty printer cartridges from parents and local businesses. This is a very safe alternative to selling fundraisers...there is NO door to door selling and no cash handling. And we will provide all of the tools needed!

We also pay shipping when they send us 20 or more cell phones, 20 or more inkjets, or 6 or more toner cartridges. We also work with the Ronald McDonald House Charities, YSUSA.com, the Humane Society and Earth Force.

Please call us if you have any questions about our program or visit us online!

Thanks!

Good job. I appreciate your thoughts. Your ideas are amazing. Hope they would be successful once implemented. I think candy fund raising is the best suited for school fundraisers. For information on fundraiser candies and many more do visit...

As a parent and community member, I feel best about contributing when the students are involved in the fund raising as more than just the selling of a product which I can buy cheaper as part of my routine shopping. Car washes, pizza sales of pizzas made by the students, bake sales of student made products, or even auctions of services provided by students involve the students more and I feel that the students are receiving a larger portion of my money than they would from sales of a product for which they must pay.
Candy, gift wrap, cookies, magazine subscriptions, wreathes, etc. are fine, but sometimes it seems like there is a constant bombardment of young people hitting you up for money for stuff.

In the local high school, a teacher use to organize a travel club and she signed the group up to do jobs in the community: cleaning the school gym after events, planting flowers in community parks, working in the summer at the local visitors' center, etc. The students were providing necessary services and the amount paid to the group was money that was already in a budget, not donations or charity.

I agree that the collection of cellular phones and ink and toner cartridges is suitable in that these items should be recycled and, as different from people having to pay the students, they are only giving up the possibility of small rebates if they had recycled in other ways.
