Rock-A-Thon FundraisingOur youth group did a Rock A Thon. Each student asked for pledges from friends, family and neighbors to see how long they could rock in a rocking chair & playing video games. The kids had to bring their own rocking chairs or gaming chairs that rocked. They also were allow to bring their own non-violent video games and systems to play. The school supplied the TV's and electoral cords. We raised over $2,000 with this A-Thon and the kids loved it. As the night went on we had terminals with different games and WII matches all for silly prizes. We made a minimum pledge of $25, so the kids understood it wasn't just a free night of video games. Really easy to set up. It was a win/win night. (Source: Anonymous) |

We have included a number of do-it-yourself fundraising ideas in this
section such as a Rock-A-Thon 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 |
