Fundraisers play a crucial role in bridging the financial gap for schools and organizations. They provide essential funding necessary for operations. However, many traditional fundraising methods still rely heavily on the sale of high-calorie, low-nutrient foods. Others may ask supporters to purchase incidental items or paper products, which often do not align with the growing awareness of health issues like childhood and adult obesity, as well as the ecological impact of our choices.
Healthy and Sustainable Fundraising Activities presents a fresh and innovative approach to fundraising. It offers options that align with the core values of health, physical activity, and ecological sustainability emphasized within schools and organizations. Unlike conventional fundraisers, the ideas presented in this book encourage personal, community, and environmental health, while also reinforcing the health and social responsibility initiatives that are increasingly important in educational settings.
This resource is designed to engage not just the school or organization but the entire community in health-promoting activities that are environmentally friendly. By utilizing ideas from Healthy and Sustainable Fundraising Activities, you will find a variety of creative options that range from recycling initiatives, such as ink cartridge recycling, to engaging community events like dance competitions. Each fundraising idea is crafted to energize students, members, and the wider community, inspiring them to meet and even surpass fundraising goals.
For educators, the activities outlined in this resource are grounded in established standards, including the National Health Education Standards (NHES) and the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE) standards. This makes Healthy and Sustainable Fundraising Activities an invaluable tool for integrating health and wellness initiatives into your fundraising efforts.
