Lazy Boy Day Fundraising
We ran Lazy-Boy Day for a fun activity and a
way to raise some money. We set up a Lazy Boy chair in the
cafeteria at lunch on Monday to Thursday, and sold tickets for
25 cents each. On Thursday, just before the end of school, we
drew the winner's name. That person got to spend all of their
classes on Friday from the comfort of the Lazy Boy chair.
Student council members brought the chair to
the winner's first period class
and at the end of first period, student council
members moved it to their next period class. It was a great way to
raise a little money and have some
fun at the same time. I've heard of schools where you get to
keep the chair at the end of the day, but we just used an old
chair from somebody's basement.

We have included a number of do-it-yourself fundraising ideas in this
section such as a Lazy Boy Day that offer a break from
traditional product sales. They were developed by groups just
like yours in an attempt have a little fun with their fundraiser. Some
of them are tried and true while others show a lot of creativity ...
and even wackiness in some cases. All of them are obviously not
appropriate for every group, but sometimes, with only a little
modification, your might find some fund raising ideas that are perfect
for your group. If you have an idea for a do-it-yourself fund raiser
you are willing to share with others, please send it to us via email
at .
Include anything
and everything you would want to know if you were hearing the idea for
the first time.
