Candy Bar Fundraiser

Hershey's Max Candy Bar ProgramYou can’t spell “fundraiser” without “fun”! And on that note, you group will get earn more money if its members enjoy themselves while carrying out your fundraiser. So why not make your group’s next fundraiser a lot more fun by holding a candy bar fundraiser? Your group members will love selling the candy bars that they themselves adore—and will have no trouble doing it, not with these amazing treats.

We offer several variety packs that your group can sell: packs with $1 chocolate bars; packs with $2 chocolate bars; Hershey’s variety packs; and variety packs of chocolate bars, Sour Jacks, and Nuclear SQWorms. Profit ranges from up to 50% profit to up to 65% profit ($2 Chocolatiers Community Pack), so choose carefully when deciding which candy bars your group will sell.

On one hand, the Hershey’s variety packs are a great choice because they include classic favorites like Hershey’s Milk Chocolate, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, and Kit Kats. On the other hand, One Dollar Bars cost (naturally) only a dollar, so potential supporters—especially strangers—are more likely to buy these from your group. Then again, you could just go for both the Hershey’s chocolate and the cheap price with the Hershey $1.50 Chocolatetown Plus Variety Pack and/or $1.50 Hershey’s Max Assortment; they both include the 3 sweet treats mentioned above, as well as others.

Everyone Loves Candy Bars

Since everyone loves candy bars, your group members won’t have to target your sales to any one group in particular; they can sell the products to everyone. So have your group members offer to sell candy bars to all their friends and family members. If you’re not sure how many candy bars your group will be able to sell, however, the minimum order is 1 case, so can order a case and give it a try.

Every time your group sells 6 cases of $2 Hershey Fundraising Assortment, or 8 cases of either $1.50 Hershey’s Max Assortment or $2 Hershey Chocolatetown Plus, you’ll receive a free 5-pound chocolate bar. This offer applies to all the Hershey’s candy bar fundraisers!

As with other product fundraisers, have your group members ask their friends and family if they’d like to buy the candy bars. Your group can also set up sell them at school and work events. Since many people are going to these events—and they’re already in the mood to spend money—you’ll make decent profits in no time.

If it’s possible, hit the streets for extra sales; go to places where there’s a lot of foot traffic, like downtown. Also approach people who are waiting for the bus or the train: they’re likely bored because they have nothing to do, so they’ll be more open to buying candy bars from your group members. Never do this with minors, though—make sure all participants are adults.

You don’t need to worry about your next fundraiser: fundraising is no problem at all with our candy bar fundraisers. We offer Hershey’s chocolate bars, lip-smacking $1 and $2 chocolate bars, and variety packs of chocolate bars and sour candy. Since people of all ages love candy bars, it’s extremely easy for your group members to sell them. So go on! Order a case or two, and delight your supporters with our delicious candy bars.

Five Great Non Profit Fundraising Ideas

With today’s difficult times, it can be quite a challenge for nonprofit organizations, and for them to come up with the money they so desperately need often seems impossible. However, they can get those funds rolling in with some fun and easy, non profit fundraising ideas. There is a vast array of fundraising methods for organizations to choose from that do not require a lot of work, time or money.

Top 5 Non Profit Fundraiser Ideas

Fairs or carnivals are extremely popular activities for organizations to raise money, and since they are so fun, it is extremely easy to get a remarkably large amount of people to attend. If there is any way that the nonprofit can get a celebrity to make an appearance, the funds that the organization raise could dramatically be increased, as well.

Marathons or walk-a-thons are also effective ways for groups to raise needed funds. Again, since so many people like the idea of being close to celebrities; if a celebrity can make an appearance, the number of attendees will increase, and so the funds will increase, as well.

Yet another popular non profit fundraising idea to raise money is for the group to sell different items such as candy bars, books, novelties, curios, baked goods or gift baskets. They can do this either by setting up tables outside of various stores or by organizing yard sales. When setting up at stores, members must always remember to get the manager’s permission first.

Many businesses are more than willing to sponsor sporting events to help organizations raise funds. This not only helps the nonprofit organizations, but it helps the businesses by advertising their company’s names and their various products, as well. It also helps the business in that it looks favorable for them to be associated with charity organizations.

One event that has been highly successful in the past and holds its ground today is a car wash. In today’s busy world, many people have no time to wash their cars and will gladly pay someone else to do it.

The list of other fundraising ideas is virtually endless. Other events that organizations can consider are talent shows, musicals, auctions, selling discount cards or coupon books, leaving charity jars in stores and having a “charity button”, that visitors can click, on the organization’s websites. One thing for groups to keep in mind, is that although some people cannot give money, they might be able to donate other things such as time, furniture, supplies or equipment. These donations can be just as valuable as cash.

In conclusion, non profit fundraising ideas with today’s difficult times, can be a bit of a challenge for groups to get the money they need. However, they can obtain these funds using some fun and easy fundraising ideas. There is a vast array of methods for groups to raise extra money and listed here are just a few. It is essential for these groups to remember that, although donations of money are terrific; donations of such things as time, equipment, supplies and furniture is valuable, as well.
