RELAY FOR LIFE
Fund Raising Ideas
A-Z
D
Dances for a Cure:
Students can hold a school dance. Adults can put
together a dance at a local club or hail. Get a band or
DS to donate their services.
Day of Cleaning Raffle:
Team members donate a suggested five hours to
spring/fall house clean your home, with tickets selling
for $5 each.
Day Spa:
Raffle off a day of beauty, or for a set fee, provide
haircuts, manicures and massages.
Decorating Service:
No time to decorate
...
Holiday Decorating Service! Also, can put
Holiday lights up on houses for a fee
-
this is a job many people would like someone else to do.
Deliver Flyers:
See what businesses distribute sales flyers in the
weekly paper or through the mail and offer for your team
to deliver them within the town (at each house) for a
set amount. It costs these businesses a lot to mail them
out and they would be able to save money by having you
distribute them personally. This is another good idea
for a student or running team. In Washington State the
phone company paid a high school team 52,500 to
distribute the new phone books throughout the community.
Die Cut Cards:
The Suns and Moons paper cut outs (available for a
minimal cost through the Division Office) can be sold at
businesses, companies, or anywhere people frequent. Some
teams have used them at Holiday time to place on a
Memorial or Honor tree. Other Divisions have seen other
paper cutouts with the RELAY logo used: Ice Cream Cones
with the logo at local ice cream shops, paper bowling
pins line the walls of a bowling alley to “bowl down
cancer", and in the Wayne and Pike units, paper clocks
are sold at local businesses to benefit the event.
Dog Walkers:
Have your team walk the neighbors dogs for a donation.
Many pet owners would appreciate the opportunity to let
someone take their dog for a long walk. Dog Sit
while the owners are on vacation. Saves them from
sending Fido to the kennel.
Donut Days:
Students have done this, where they get donuts donated
from a bakery every Friday, and sell them at school.
Dress
Down Days:
Many businesses have been doing this, where their
employees can, dress down for the day if they
make a certain donation. This is also happening at
parochial schools or
-other
schools that require uniforms. For a specified donation,
the student doesn’t have to wear a uniform that day to
school.
Dress as a Woman:
Raise money to have a certain person dress up as a woman
for the day, or have employees pay $1 to vote for the
individual they would like to see dress as a woman. The
two individuals with the most votes would spend the
entire workday dressed as a woman.
