There are so many choices when it comes to fundraising today and candy fundraising is still one of the most popular fundraisers.
Candy fundraisers are one of the most used fundraisers for churches, schools, athletic teams, drama clubs and more.
They are quick, easy, cheap and not hard to sell because most people like a little sweet in their diet at least on occasion.
Groups can opt to do gourmet candy fundraisers with companies like See's candies or other order taking candy fundraisers.
These fundraisers offer great name brand candy and are particularly good around the holiday season when companies and individuals like to purchase these candies in bulk for holiday gift giving and corporate gifting.
Although the profit percentage is less than on some other fundraisers, gourmet candy fundraisers done at the right time can be highly profitable.
More common year-round are chocolate bar fundraisers where group members sell different chocolate bars to friends, family, and neighbors.
Team or group members can also sell the candy door-to-door, at sports games, in front of local stores (with permission from store management) or at events.
The candy bars tend to be easy to sell because of the low price point.
Your group or team could also buy various candies wholesale at a discount store and resell them for a profit at games, events, door-to-door and to friends.
The team could even opt to make their own specialty candies and sell them at a premium.
Crucial to your group's success doing a candy fundraiser will rely on your ability to not eat the profits!
