Candy Fundraising and Sweet Success
Candy fundraising is always popular and helps raise a lot of money because candy is so well-liked.
Despite our dentist's warnings, everyone wants it. And everyone eats it. Some people can't get enough. Sweet tooths (teeth?) abound. Diabetics and weight watchers can partake of the sugarless varieties.
Even small groups do well with this kind of activity because you don't need many volunteers to do candy fundraising successfully.
Candy has high profit margins and is fairly cheap for you and your customers, which is one reason why these fundraisers work so well for fundraising groups of any size.
Most of us have purchased over-priced products from fundraisers, but we don't mind paying a little extra for candy if we're only spending a buck or two and especially if we know that we're helping a worthy cause. And candy works well for all types of fundraising groups, in both affluent and less affluent communities.
Kids are great salespeople for fundraising products in general, but perhaps more so with candy.
As long as an adult accompanies them, kids can sell door-to-door to the neighbors, or they can get on the phone to their relatives and friends. Parents can help by selling to their coworkers.
But don't stop there. To make the best of your candy fundraisers, talk to local businesses, call out of state relatives, ask a local grocery store to set up a booth, and search for buyers everywhere you can. Potential customers are plentiful.
Try to get as many volunteers as possible too. The more volunteers you have soliciting donations, the more money your group will raise.
