Raise money for your school group and 
promote a healthy lifestyle at the same time

Finding ways to promote a healthy way of life is very important to today's parents and educators. There are several ways that your school group can encourage healthy living and raise some funds for the school.  

You can either promote a healthy food fundraiser, or host an activity that is exercise based. Here are several variations on healthy fundraisers for your group to consider: 

 

1. Popcorn 

Popcorn makes a good fundraiser because it's a snack that many people enjoy. Unlike frozen foods, popcorn fundraisers do not require refrigeration. These resealable bags are not too bukly or heavy so they are easy to store and deliver. The popcorn comes in regular butter, lowfat butter, natural, and kettle corn.

2. Fruit Sales

Many growers offer fruit wholesale to schools so that they can sell it to raise funds. Apples, oranges, pears, and grapefruits are available.  Some fruit sales are done seasonally and some are available year-round.

3. Walks and other "Thons"

Walk-a-thons are fun ways to promote exercise, for kids to have a fun day and to raise funds for your school group.  Usually these raise money when kids get family and friends to pledge a certain amount per mile or for the day. Businesses can sponsor the walk-a-thon for additional revenue for the school. Other popular thons include jump rope, skip, hop scotch and cycling.

4. Dance Fundraiser

Dances are popular especially with junior high, high school, college groups and adults. There are a variety of ways that a dance fundraiser can be planned. Choose a theme that will be fun for your group.  Ticket sales, food, raffles and auctions are just a few ways to raise funds with a dance.

5. Bottled Water Sales

Bottled water is popular as an alternative to sugary soda. Your school can have private label bottled water and sell it at school.  The bottles can be sold as cases or individually. It can be sold at sports games and concession stands.
