Giving Your School a Beaded Boost: A New Idea for Booster Club Fundraisers
The American high school is a melting pot of cultures, income levels, ideas, motivations, class levels, and fashion. Believe it or not, high school is the one place many people look when it comes to emerging fashions and styles; where the young go, the world tends to follow.
When you’re looking for a great and new idea for what to sell at school fundraisers, you should consider something other than the usual t-shirts, sweaters, baseball caps, and giant foam fingers—everyone already has those things. As a member of the high school Booster Club, you should consider selling an item that will help you raise money, but will also add something positive to the student’s lives. It would also be even better if what you’re selling looked good.
With the need for increased security in high schools (this is a sad and staggering fact); each student is required to carry, at all times, a school issued photo ID. Not only does this make it easier for staff to keep track of who belongs on school property and who doesn’t. As a side benefit, it gives the students an avenue to show their individuality by decorating their school IDs with stickers, pen graffiti, and even using different types of ID holders to keep the ID attached.
A great way to help students keep their ID close, accessible, and visible at all times it to provide them with ID badge holders and lanyards—but not just any badge holders and lanyards; they’ll need to be cool, fashionable, and have a great look and feel that the students wouldn’t mind wearing every day.
For those who aren’t aware, a lanyard is a word for those ribbons or beaded ropes that hang around the neck and attach to ID badges. You’ve seen them; on nurses, on college students, or government workers—basically anyone required to wear and present ID. Your school students could really use a reliable way to hold their ID without having to carry it around in their pockets. With their IDs around their necks, they don’t even have to think about it. If you sell lanyards and badge holders as a form of fundraiser, you’re guaranteed to raise the funds you need as well as provide an item to your students that they will actually use and like.
Lanyards come in many different styles (ribbon or beaded), colors, designs, and can be ordered with different accessories like the badge holder, reel, and clip. Designer pieces are decorated with a wide array of stylish designs that students – and teachers – will love.
Booster Club fundraisers can sometimes leave you stumped for ideas, but selling something as useful and cool as a lanyard will open the doors to the potential of higher overall sales., Since so many people today make use of the this handy tool, it’s a win- win situation for both the fundraisers and the buyers..
When fundraiser season comes around and the new school IDs are issued, go online, order your badge holders and lanyards, and sell them to the students.
