Office Fundraising Ideas

Fundraising in the office can bring some great profits for your group, especially if you and your group members have many colleagues. However, the office environment is different from the other venues in which you would try to fundraise, so you should use those fundraisers which will earn you more money in this type of atmosphere. To make the most of this type of environment, here’s a list of office fundraising ideas.

Sell Preportioned Gourmet Cookie Dough to your coworkers.

By selling Preportioned Gourmet Cookie Dough, your group can make up to 55% profit! The fact that making these zero-fat cookies literally only consists of popping them into the oven and baking them is convenient for those coworkers who don’t have time to make cookies from scratch.

Selling cookie dough is a popular, profitable fundraising program. It costs absolutely nothing to start; we’ll send you order forms for you and your group members, and you’ll bring them to work, where you’ll have willing coworkers fill them out and pay you upfront. Then, we’ll ship the cookies to you so that your group can distribute them.

Sell Quote Candles at the office.

Quote Candles are great gifts for loved ones. They’re the perfect pick-me-ups: your coworkers simply have to read the inspirational quotes they come with to feel better after a long day at work. Best of all, your group can make a great 50% profit!

Again, bring the order forms to your workplace. Your coworkers will be happy to buy these candles with their their 8 stupendous scents, from Lavender Mist to Baked Apple Pie.

Sell raffle tickets so that employees can win a day off.

For this fundraiser, you’ll need to get permission from your boss (unless you are the boss). Price each raffle ticket at $5, and, if you can, try to get the whole department involved. This fundraiser is usually quite profitable!

Run a snack bar at the office.

Stock up on cookies, doughnuts, popcorn, or bagels—better yet, have some donated or make them yourself—and open up a snack bar at your workplace. Make sure your prices are lower than those in the vending machine and in nearby restaurants.

Hold a lunch-box auction.

Encourage your coworkers to pack their own lunches with this appetizing event. In this fundraiser, you’ll have your coworkers or group members create unique lunches—most definitely not the standard sandwich, apple and cookie you brought to school when you were a kid—and then put them on display, in such a way that they look beautiful as well as delectable. Have the employees vote on which lunches are the healthiest, prettiest, most humorous and most elegant. Auction off all the lunches afterward. Don’t forget to pass out memos before the event!

Although office fundraising is a great source of money, it often seems daunting. Nevertheless, people are often willing to help a group in need—especially if your group is using our clever office fundraising ideas. You and your group members can sell Preportioned Cookie Dough, Quote Candles, and raffle tickets for employees to win a day off; run a snack bar at the office; and hold a lunch-box auction. So don’t despair! You’re fundraising for a worthy cause, and your coworkers will be happy to participate in your wonderful fundraisers.
