Are you interested in serving children in need and making an impact
in the community?
Join other local volunteers in organizing a fundraiser for Grow.Give.Gorham.
$450 will help us feed an elementary school child in the the Backpack program for an entire
school year. The number of children we are able to feed is limited only by the financial support we are able to secure.​ Below are some creative and fun fundraising ideas.
Art Sale
Invite local artists to donate some of their works, which will be displayed and then sold to the public. Or if you and your friends are artist, use your beautiful work.
Bingo Is Its Name-O
Everyone loves to compete…get prizes donated and charge an entrance fee.
Bake Sale
A bake sale is one of the easiest fundraisers to run and can be used as part of a larger event such as a craft sale for the holidays, open house, parent/teacher conference.
Donation Jar
Place a donation jar in an area of high traffic at your place of work. Every contribution big or small goes to making a difference.
Beat the Goalie
Pick the best hockey or soccer goalie you know and invite people to try to score a goal for a prize. Every participant has to pay to play.
Bowling
Organize a bowling night or a competition. Charge everyone a small fee to enter or have participants get bowl-a-thon pledges.
Eat for a Cause
Ask a local restaurant to sponsor a Grow.Give.Gorham. and donate a percentage of their profits on a designated night in exchange for encouraging friends, families and supporters to eat there.
Jelly Bean Count
Fill a jar with jellybeans and have people pay to guess how many there are in the jar. Ask local businesses and retailers to provide a prize for the winner.
It's a Wrap
Host a gift wrapping service to wrap gifts for people for the holidays.
Lunch Money Challenge
Lunch Money Challenge The average American spends $10 when going out to lunch. Once a week “brown bag it” and use the money saved to support Grow.Give.Gorham.
Jeans Day
In schools or offices with a specific dress code, everyone gets to wear jeans if they raise enough money to meet a goal.
