When most people think of fundraisers, they tend to think of sugary snacks and dessert items. Although this is often the case, fundraisers can promote healthiness in people’s lives. There are all sorts of ways you can raise money at your next fundraiser by encouraging healthy lifestyles. Here are some healthy fundraising ideas you may want to consider because they are crowd pleasers and have been shown to be highly effective.
Plants
All ages can appreciate a plant fundraiser. If you are looking to promote healthy living, a plant fundraiser is an excellent way to do so. The plants you sell do not need to be overly big; they could just be small house plants people can buy for their home. You also may want to think about selling plant seeds because they are something that also sells.
Fruits
Since we are currently in the summer months, why not a fresh fruit fundraiser? People love fruit because it is healthy, but still incredibly delicious when it is in season and ripe. There are several ways you can encourage people to buy fruit at your fundraiser. You could bring a blender to your event and pass out free sample smoothies or maybe make individual fruit salads to give away. Once you remind people how delicious summer fruits are, the more inclined they will be to buy from you.
Cookbooks
Many people love to cook. This fact usually stems from the fact that many people love to eat. A cookbook fundraiser is an excellent idea that many people get excited over. If you are trying to raise money for a good cause, ask people if they have any old cookbooks that they would be willing to donate to your cause. Try to look for cookbooks with healthy reipes to help promote healthy living.
