The School Fundraiser

Generating money through fundraising events and schemes is a key factor for many schools. Aimed at headteachers, school governors and PTA members, The School Fundraiser provides a comprehensive guide to creative ways of raising funds for your school, while involving members of the school community in the process.
With many schools relying heavily on the amount of money that can be generated through organising schemes and events, The School Fundraiser offers advice on how to go about managing events throughout the year.
Sections include:
legal requirements and codes of practice essential to successful fundraising
building up business partnerships within the community
general networking opportunities
approaching the corporate sector for donations and sponsorship ideas
There are many fun ideas for harnessing the skills and talents of school staff, friends, pupils and parents for promoting and publicising these worthwhile causes. This will be an invaluable resource to help schools generate extra revenue, whether it is needed for essential equipment, extra-curricular activities or educational visits.
