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.
