Looking for a great fundraising idea? Considered a candle fundraiser? Candle fundraising is a perennial, but effective fundraiser. Everyone loves candles, they aren't expensive and they help add beauty and a pleasant aroma to your home. Candle fundraisers appeal to everyone.
Of course if you are going to hold a candle fundraiser you need to have candles for it. Preferably a good range of different types of candles and different price points as well. There are a number of places where you can source candles for your fundraisers.
Candles aren't that hard to make. If you have a little ability with your hands you won't find it at all difficult to make good quality and attractive candles. If you are holding a candle fundraiser for an organisation why not enlist the help of a group of people in the organisation to make them for you.
There are plenty of places on the internet where you can find the instructions and the supplies for making candles. Why not encourage the members of your organisation to add it to their range of family activities. Kids love candle making and are usually happy to be involved in the candle making, although it is sometimes more of a hindrance than a help! And they might end up burning quite a few of them too!
Make sure though that you get everyone started on their candle making activities well before the fundraiser is due. People being what they are, you don't want to get everyone started on their candle making project the week before and then find that no one has actually got many candles made.
Or even that the supplies that you had expected to arrive for the project take a week longer than you expected. So make sure everyone has plenty of time to get used to making candles and to build up a good stock of candles. You may be surprised at how many you need.
And investigate buying some candles in too. Commercially made candles are extremely attractive and well packaged and can often be sold at a higher price than home made ones. It always pays to give your customers a choice.
So if your organisation is in need of funds why not consider a candle fundraiser. It's fun for the family and can be great for the organisation, often raising more than you'd anticipate.
Happy candle making, enjoy yourselves. |
