Raise Money for Your School by Creating School Fundraising Calendars and Photo Products

Tips and Tricks

School fundraising calendar photo ideas

• Take photos of students and make a photo collage for each month.
• Take photos of school events.
• Take photos of school sport teams.
• Feature pictures of local celebrities and heroes (firefighters, police officers, people in the medical field, etc). Spice it up and take photos of the firefighters with no shirts.
• Advertise in this years calendar to have customers submit photos for next years calendar. Give them an email to send photos too. Maybe give the top 5 best photo winners a free calendar.
• Feature points of interest in your community - parks, buildings, businesses, people, landmarks, lakes, etc.

Events to list on your school fundraising calendar

• You should list your organization's events for the year, but you can also add your local community events to make your calendar more interesting to the general public. This will help promote more sales.

Ideas on how to sell your calendar

• Make a flyer for students to take home and order from.
• Sell at the school store or concession stand.
• Create your calendar and have us print a small batch (1-10 copies). Hand these out to your sales team and they can go door-to-door or however you choose and start taking in orders. Download and Print our Calendar Order Form. After you have done this for your chosen amount of time, gather all orders and tally them together. Now you can submit your large order to us and save on our volume pricing.
• Post your calendar for sale on your website, blog, facebook page, and our online store.
• Take out an ad in your local newspaper.
• Email all of your contacts.
• Mail a postcard to your customers/members.
• Sell at fundraising events, annual banquets, local businesses, or festivals, parades, and fairs.

Generate extra funds for your calendar project

• Sell birthday image listings - i.e. sell each birthday image listing for $5 and place a picture of the person on that date.
• Sell birthday text listings.
• Add coupons in your date boxes.
• Sell sponsorship listings to local companies and list them in the imprint area on the calendar.
• Order your calendars through Paypal and use the "Bill Me Later" option. This will give you up to 6 Months to sell and collect the funds up-front to pay off your bill.
