Creative Fundraising Through Carnivals!

By Jenny Ann

It's a great time to offer creative fundraising that will bring your community together. Something fun for the kids, and that the teenagers can help with can make carnival fundraising your most successful fundraiser ever.
It will be important to get organized and get the involvement and active support of your group members when running a carnival fundraiser. There will be many different aspects to manage from tickets, activities, entertainment, food, location and more. As the organizer, you can delegate different groups to come up with plans and execute each of these different elements of your carnival fundraiser.
Some ideas for booths that you could have at your carnival include the following: a cake walk booth, an apple dunking contest, face painting, musical chairs and more. It is great if you have group members who can offer their talents either artistic, cooking, musical or other to create enticing booths that offer activities or services to those attending the carnival.
You can involve more than group by inviting the whole community to come to the carnival - this is a great way to generate more profit and to have the opportunity to interact with other groups in the community.
Food and drink sold at the carnival can be donated by local businesses. Parents of team or group members can also donate goods or services or their time to make the carnival fundraiser a success. Another option for added profits at your carnival fundraiser is to have a Spinners booth where people Spin the wheel of the Spinners fundraiser and donate the amount shown on the wheel - it's a small amount and in exchange they get a sheet of valuable coupons. This could increase your carnival profits dramatically!
