Unique Fundraising Ideas for Fall: Go Green!

Many of us have heard that being eco-friendly or going "green" is a good thing to do, but what exactly does that mean? Some basic guidelines to follow, so that you know whether or not a product you are using or purchasing is eco-friendly, are to ask a few questions: is it made from recycled material, is it natural instead of toxic, does it use less energy, does it last longer, and does it decompose quickly? If you can answer yes to any of these questions, then you probably are using an eco-friendly product.

Products like these are becoming more and more popular as creative fundraising ideas for very simple and not always obvious reasons:

  • "Recycled paper generates 95% less air pollution. Each ton of recycled paper can save 60 pounds of air pollution, 17 trees or 7,000 gallons of water."

  • "Plastic bags kill over 100,000 birds, whales, seals, and turtles every year. Plastic bags are not biodegradable and can take up to 500 years to break down into toxic bits that pollute our soil, rivers and oceans."

  • Just these two facts show that making simple changes can cause great impacts on the environment. Giving facts like above to your customers can also be a great sales tool for your green fundraiser. A unique fundraising idea is to sell EcoTotes Reusable Shopping Bags and give people the facts that plastic bags not only hurt animals, but they are not biodegradable. Showing people that there are options is a creative fundraising idea that is sure to give you great results on your next fundraiser.

    Having a green fundraiser is one of the best unique fundraising ideas out there simply because everyone wants to help Mother Nature. If you can find a fundraising company that offers great eco-friendly products for your next green fundraiser, then you are more likely to have high profits just because people are extremely willing to help their community in multiple ways as well as the environment. So, you will have the benefit of not only raising money for your nonprofit, but you will be helping the community be more green as well.
