Fundraising Locations

Question: Last minute fundraising location?
I’m trying to fundraise by selling snow man poop(marshmallows) and hot chocolate. But there was a problem with the location we wanted to sell them at, and we can’t do it there anymore.
So now I have a bunch of marshmallows and hot chocolate and no way to get rid of them. What kind of places that would allow a group to set up in front of their store to fundraise at the last minute without too much fuss?
Answer: All of these stores may not be in your area, but in my area, they often let groups fundraise in or in front of their stores:
CVS Pharmacy
Walmart
Boscov’s Department Store
Also, if you are a member of a church or synagogue, you could ask to have a table set up after services to sell your Fundraising Items.
Good luck!

Question: World Aids Day, fundraising idea help?
I need some more ideas for fundraising for World Aids Day.
So far I have:
•Teachers guess the baby photo competition
•Red non-uniform day at school and make a donation for the privilege of wearing red
•Sponsored bike ride dressed completely in red
•A red-themed dinner and ask everyone to make a donation
And obviously selling the red ribbons, the red-themed dinners will be school dinners.
Any more ideas, I’d like something really original this year if possible.
Answer: What about a Coffee fundraiser?
Specialty coffee and beverages are an exploding market nationwide and it practically sells itself. Java Joe’s Roasting Company is an upstate New York based coffee roaster, who specializes in fundraising. Organizations will realize a profit of $2.50 or more per bag sold. The products will be customized to promote your organization (free of charge) and there are no set up fees or minimums. This fundraising program is equitable and offers your supporters a first class practical product that is perfect for every day use. Good luck! I hope I was able to help.
p.s. My son’s preschool made $2,496 during a 2 week campaign.
