Flower fundraisers are an eco-friendly way for schools, churches, and non-profits to raise funds. They can sell freshly cut flowers or take orders for delivery. Greenhouses may donate or sell flowers at a discount. Longer fundraisers or selling bulbs can raise more money. Seasonal flowers like poinsettias are popular for holiday fundraisers. Flowers can be purchased in someone else’s name as a gift.
A flower fundraiser is a creative method used by many schools, churches or non-profit organizations to raise funds in an environmentally friendly way. Like most fundraisers, fundraiser attendees will generally be responsible for selling as many flowers as possible to people they know. This can happen in several ways; it can be as simple as setting up a table and selling freshly cut flowers, or it can happen over a longer period of time, with people placing flower orders in advance and having them delivered later. It may also be possible to purchase flowers in someone else’s name at a flower fundraiser.
Depending on the nature of the organization hosting the flower fundraiser, greenhouses or growers may simply donate the flowers for sale or sell them at a significant discount or at cost. This allows the organization to raise as much money as possible through fundraising for flowers. If not, they will typically recoup the funds initially spent to purchase the flowers through the fundraiser. There are a number of organizations that make use of fundraisers throughout the year, finding it to be a good way to earn funds for specific projects or day-to-day operations. Flower fundraisers often happen in the spring, as well as during holidays like Easter or Christmas.
A simple flower fundraiser where a table is set and freshly cut flowers are sold can be a good way to make money on a given day, but the funds raised are generally not as large as those from fundraisers that last for a period longer than time, or sell bulbs or potted plants. Schools often sell bulbs as a fundraiser, and the people who buy them can then plant them outdoors and enjoy them for years to come. Some will sell simple potted plants, but this is less common.
During the holidays, churches or other organizations often hold a fundraiser for seasonal flowers, such as poinsettias. People buying a flower or plant may do so in someone else’s name, as a keepsake or gift, which can be especially nice around the holidays. Some organizations such as churches will then use these flowers to decorate for the holidays, and then the people who bought them are free to take them home when the holidays are over. These types of fundraisers typically last for weeks and are very popular because they raise a large amount of money.
