Team/Individual Fundraiser Ideas:
Here are some ideas for individual or team fundraising! Your Team Captain will also be able to provide fundraising ideas.
-
Bake Sales– Who doesn’t love baked goods?! Contact internalfundraising@dm.wustl.edu for help booking a table. Please note: all goods that are sold on campus can’t be homemade.
-
Change Drive– Ask your friends for loose change; chances are they have some lying around. If you want to make a competition out of it, compete with your teammates to see who can collect the most change.
-
Dorm Delivery– Offer to deliver food from a popular restaurant and charge people for delivery and tip! You can now order food for pickup from Ibby’s, which is both convenient and popular!
-
Match Me– Be sure to remind family and friends to ask their employers about matching donations they make to you. Matching gifts are a great way to reach your fundraising goal faster! If you have questions about matching gifts, please contact at externalfundraising@dm.wustl.edu.
- Psychology and MISSEL Experiments– Participate in psychology or MISSEL lab experiments for cash to donate to your fundraising goal! Go to https://experimetrix2.com/WU/ or www.missel.wustl.edu to register and learn more about how to get involved.
