How Do Band Fundraisers Work?Band fundraising is a way of life if you’re a high school music student. Most band directors admit, it's expensive to be competitive. Boosters and directors work constantly to bring in money. Whether you're fundraising for band trips or new uniforms, if you want to compete, it’s going to cost money.
The most common way for groups to raise money is to sell products. Items like wrapping paper and cookie dough account for more than $1.5 billion in annual profits.
You can have your students take orders from a brochure or order a product first and have them sell it “in hand”. Either way, no upfront payment is required.
If you prefer to take orders first, we’ll send you a brochure, order form, and money envelope for each band member. When finished, send us your order forms so we can process, pack, and ship you your merchandise.
You’ll receive a complete sales report and invoice, and we’ll contact you to set up your delivery date.
When selling direct, payment is due 15 days after you receive your product. This will give you time to sell the product. Your profit is the difference between the total amount collected and your invoice.

Why Our Band Fundraising Ideas?Seasonal shoppers are commonly used. Niche fundraisers that work well include candles, popcorn, and discount cards.
Many bands do their fundraising through their band booster. Some popular fundraisers include cookie dough, frozen food, and flowers.
Consider offering a product that promotes school pride and spirit. Tumblers, discount cards, and scratch cards have your school name, colors, and mascot.
Try selling low-priced items that sell fast, like candy bars, beef jerky, or lollipops.
Band booster clubs are outside organizations that help bands raise money. They pay for things like uniforms, trips, and contest entrance fees.
Band Fundraising Suggestions & TipsWhether raising money for instruments, uniforms, or travel, we have a program for you. Our band fundraisers offer great products for buyers and appealing incentives for students.
These two ingredients are the recipe that will help you reach your financial goals.
Our favorite fundraising product for a band fundraiser is popcorn. With variety pack popcorn, you can let people pick their flavor on the spot. Selling along the sidelines or in the bleachers during a game will be a breeze. Especially when you offer that jalapeño cheddar flavor… yum!
Consider placing “This Popcorn Supports the Middlebury Marching Band” on the popcorn bags. It never hurts to go for some extra marketing.
Another good option for a fundraiser is the Discount Card. They can be customized with the band’s group photo on the front and options for food to grab after the game on the back.
Sell individually packaged goodies at events where the band is playing. For example, the homecoming football game or other school events. Folks can see exactly what their money is supporting at a time when they’ll enjoy a tasty snack.
First, identify the appropriate incentive for the age range of your band members. Traditional prizes, like headphones and scooters, may be better for younger band members. Whereas cash prizes would probably motivate older ones. The apparel prizes would work well for both!
Consider polling your group to determine what type of prize would be most appealing. Traditional prize programs are likely more workable for smaller groups, like band fundraisers. But, a Super Party event for larger band fundraisers may be desirable.
Prizes are free of charge, and the group retains a 40% profit on items sold. Students will benefit by receiving prizes for their hard work. You’ll also be able to raise awareness throughout the sales process about the benefits of a band program.
‘Cash Prize Extravaganza’ offers up to $200 in cash. An online cash prize program is available as well.
Band members will be motivated by the opportunity to help their group reach a big overall goal. It’s a win-win for school bands and their musical members!
