Spring will be here before we know it, bringing with it the arrival of rain showers, crisp morning smells, and Easter!<\/p>\n

Easter and the celebration of spring are worthy events to fundraise around. Tulips, daffodils, and mid-May blossoms are on everyone\u2019s minds and moods, and pastel palettes peek through shop windows. Easter bunnies come to lay chocolate eggs, and jelly beans are the only legumes we care about.<\/p>\n

So, with Easter on our mind and spring around the corner, let\u2019s talk about fundraising ideas for church groups<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Take out your notebooks, \u2018cause we\u2019ve listed our top 5 favorite Easter fundraisers to inspire you into action.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n

1) Chocolate & Candy!<\/h2>\n

Obviously, chocolate and candy are not the origins of Easter, but they\u2019ve long been associated with it! Eggs are an ancient symbol of new life, and the chocolate Easter egg dates back to early 19th century Europe. Later, in the early-mid 20th century, jellybeans and little yellow marshmallow peeps became traditional Easter candy. And today, well, there\u2019s no shortage of variety!<\/p>\n

Classic Candy Bars<\/h3>\n

Okay, so it\u2019s true that candy bars aren\u2019t *egg shaped*, but they\u2019re most certainly chocolate and we think they make an awesome Easter fundraising idea! Plus, we don\u2019t think the Easter Bunny is above leaving full on candy bars in baskets, *wink*.<\/p>\n

JustFundraising has a selection of chocolate bar fundraisers, but our two most popular are the $1 America\u2019s Variety Pack<\/a> and the $1 Chocolatiers Variety Pack<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Both candy bar programs offer a variety of your favorite flavors in a convenient carrying case. Plus, at only $1 each, how can anyone resist? Your group only needs to order 1 master case (containing 4 carriers) to start and shipping is free!<\/p>\n

Hot Tip:<\/strong> Stack two or three bars and tie them with pastel-colored ribbon (in pinks, purples, yellows) and sell them as an Easter bundle!<\/p>\n

Candy, Cause EASTER<\/h3>\n

We love any excuse for a candy fundraiser and Easter is as good as they come! We have a big variety of candy fundraisers, from our candy dipped $1 Pretzel Rods<\/a> and $1 Fortune Cookies<\/a> to our big selection of $.50 Lollipops<\/a>!<\/p>\n

To get started, your group would need to buy 1 master case which contains individual carrier cases for your team or group members to start selling!<\/p>\n

Hot Tip:<\/strong> Go candy-gram style and bundle two or three different candy items together in a cute cellophane package. Add easter grass and tie it with ribbons, and charge $5 for each one! Hold an actual candy-gram fundraiser or just sell them as tiny Easter-themed bundles.<\/p>\n

2) Popular Easter Fundraiser? A Raffle Basket!<\/h2>\n

Everyone loves a raffle basket, especially when it\u2019s an Easter basket filled to the brim with irresistible prizes! Your group has a lot of options:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Fill it with decadent chocolate and candy, donated from local chocolatiers and retailers.<\/li>\n
  2. Fill it with gourmet food items for a delicious Easter dinner.<\/li>\n
  3. Or, the basket can resemble a colorful Easter basket while the prizes inside are a variety of luxurious items!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The sky\u2019s the limit with raffle baskets! Just be sure to start planning and asking local businesses for donations far in advance. Sell tickets, make the draw, and voila: an easy, profitable fundraiser.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n
