Current Fundraisers!!

Pizzeria Uno's Fundraisers

Pizzeria Uno's does a fundraising activity, where we can hand out coupons, and for every meal that is bought with a coupon we get 10-20% of the sales from that meal. You can see more information on the program at their website. We will be doing our first one on Monday November 12th.

Lorraine's Fundraisers

We will be working in conjunction with Lorraines Food Factory to put together some fundraisers, either a buffet dinner, selling frozen meals or both. Stay tuned for more updates!

HEXBug Sales

We are running Hexbug Sales to make some money for the team. There are two ways you can work on this fundraiser, the first, you get one box for display, and take preorders for as many hexbugs as you can sell, or the second, you can ask for a specific number of boxes to sell 1-10. Please sign up with the Leadership team or Kim to help out with this fundraiser. If the team makes over $1000 on this fundraiser (sells 200 Hexbugs, an average of 5 per student), the student who sells the most Hexbugs will get a free box of Hexbugs (one of each color).

We have Hexbug Fliers and Hexbug Order Forms for use with this sale. (Note the Hexbug fliers are set up for Harris, you may modify them for your own use!)

Bottle & Can Drop Off

We have a bottle & can drop off account at EZ Bottle & Can Return. You, your family or your friends can drop off Cans at any point for a donation to the team. We will be running a fundraiser 11/13-12/18. For any student that brings in at least two large garbage bags of cans/bottles, they will get a fundraiser credit.

Patron Drive Documents

The patron drive is our team's biggest fundraiser, and brings in anywhere from $8,000 to $18,000 every year. You can see a list of our past patrons here. All of the documentation that we use to create our student packets is posted here. The students have a set of directions and hints in their packets, as well as a patron letter, a sponsorship form, and a Team 1511 pamphlet that they leave with each patron we visit.

Please See the PATRON BOOK SIGNUP SHEET before you choose businesses!!

These are just a few ideas that have been brainstormed over the years if you are looking for one to organize!
