Fundraising with Promotional Products

Fundraising is an essential part of running many organizations, especially charities, as they would simply not exist without being able to raise money in order to properly provide their services. Schools, sports teams, and other organizations are also often required to raise funds so they can afford to buy books, sporting equipment, and more.

Custom promotional products are a great way to raise funds for any organization, and there are several ways to go about it. From planning special events to basic fundraising, any business or charity can benefit from a successful fundraiser.

Charities often hold local events, inviting the public to come to learn about what they do. This is a great time to set up booths to sell products featuring your charity’s logo. Custom drinkware, cleaning cloths, bags, lip balm, hand sanitizer, and pens are ideal for events such as this. You can order a large variety of items, and setup up a table or booth at any entrance, so people have a chance to buy your merchandise as they come and go during the event. These same products are wonderful to give to people who donate to your cause or sell in an on-site store.

Schools and sporting clubs can also benefit from fundraising with promotional products. Below are several ways you can quickly and easily raise money for your school or sports team.

Promotional Ideas to Support your local Football Team and Marching Band

Fall is a popular time for local schools and students involved in sports. Football is a mainstay of any school, which usually also includes the marching band on game night. While these are two separate groups, both are considered a sport, and work together during the football season and get a lot of attention from the students, teachers, parents, and other family members. Each club often sells candy, food, and products branded with its name and logo at the concession stand to raise money.


And while you could also do the same, by selling items with your logo and offering the proceeds to the school, or the club directly, another idea is to provide the members with materials (featuring your branded logo, of course) they can use, and often need.


A great way to promote your brand would be to supply these students with a tote bag filled with promotional products featuring your name or logo. Not only does it show that you care about the kids, but their parents will see your thoughtful gift and remember your business the next time they require your services.


Custom Drawstring Sports Packs

Custom drawstring sports packs are a great idea for both the football team and marching band. They are ideal for holding everything a kid in either club needs, and it’s a great way to keep the materials separate from the rest of their school items, so they can grab it and go when it’s time for practice.


Football players will have clothing, shoes, towels, and maybe even a playbook to bring to practice, while marching band kids always have extra items to carry in addition to their instrument. They have band music and folders, instrument accessories, cleaning kits, gloves, shoes, jackets, and more. And if you fill them with useful items featuring your logo, you are sure to be noticed by their parents and teachers as well!


A sports bag is a great choice for these students. With the drawstring closures that also serve as handles, they can easily wear it – even while marching if needed! Our best-selling Non-Woven Hit Sports Pack sells for as low as $1.19 per piece and offers a large 8″ W x 9″ H imprint area for your logo, so it will be seen even from the bleachers!


Custom SPF Lip Balm

All of these kids will spend a lot of time outdoors, first in the hot sun, then in the bitter cold once the weather turns. There will be a lot of chapped lips! An SPF lip balm (or two) would be a great addition to your bag and greatly appreciated. Starting as low as 33¢ per piece, our These lip balms contain an SPF to help protect young lips from the damaging rays of the sun, and the drying winds of winter.


Personalized Hand Sanitizer and Custom Cleaning Cloths

Having hand sanitizer and a cleaning cloth in their bag is a great idea, especially for the marching band students that share instruments! In today’s world of fast-spreading viruses and your standard cold and flu, keeping your children as healthy as possible is always difficult.


Pair our 1 Oz. Square Hand Sanitizer Gel (64¢ and up) with our Value Microfiber Cloth in Printed Pouch (as low as 57¢) for a useful addition that parents and teachers will also appreciate!

For something unique and memorable, check out our Football Shaped Microfiber Cleaning Cloth. It’s perfect for the football team!


Custom Imprint Sports Water Bottles

Both of these activities are exhausting and can cause severe dehydration if you don’t have water on hand! Our 20 Oz. Surf Bottle (Push Pull Lid) would make a great addition to your bag, and is something every member needs! Starting at only 73¢ a piece, it’s a small price to pay to keep the kids hydrated.

BPA-free, it holds a generous 20 ounces and comes in a wonderful selection of colors for both the bottles and the lids, so you can mix and match to complement school colors or those of your logo. You can also order an assortment if you want to have more than one color combination!


Promotional Pens and Mechanical Pencils

One thing every member needs is a pen or pencil! There are always changes in football plays, as well as the music and choreography for the band throughout the season. Including a promotional pen or mechanical pencil would be appreciated by the football coaches and band director, as well as the students!

Our Click Pens start as low as 21¢ per piece, and are a great option since they don’t have a cap to lose! Or you can opt for a Mechanical Pencil (46¢ and up).

The Importance of Keeping your Cell Phone Clean

People tend to be negligent regarding the cleanliness of their phones. Many just wipe the screen off quickly, without concern for germs, bacteria, and fingerprints. That is, until the debris build becomes too much to hide. Then they start searching for ways to clean it!

Honestly, you should probably clean your phone on a regular basis – or at least once a day. It’s not a difficult task, and can be done easily and quickly. Keeping your cell phone and other electronic devices is important. Not only does it prolong the life of your device, it helps keeps you (and others) healthier by not the spreading germs and bacteria you pick up from others and transfer to your phone.

The information below outlines the quickest and easiest ways to keep your cell phone clean. It only takes a minute, but the benefits are numerous!

Microfiber Cleaning Cloths

Microfiber cleaning cloths are the perfect way to keep your phone clean and smudge free. Used alone or with a cleaner, these convenient cloths are very soft, and non-abrasive, so they won’t scratch your phone screen or case. They effectively remove fingerprints, dirt, and grime from your phone screen and case. We all know fingerprint smudges can’t be avoided on our phone screens, and microfiber cleaning cloths offers an easy, effective way to quickly clean up your screening.

To use a microfiber cleaning cloth, simply dampen it with water or disinfectant and wipe the screen. Remember, never pour water on your screen directly. You can even use the cloth dry without any kind of cleaner to effectively remove fingerprints! This works well for any screen – cell phone, tablet, or even laptop.

Alcohol-Based or Disinfectant Wipes

Since the appearance of Covid, people have taken every day health precautions to the next level. Alcohol-based disinfectants are the new pocket “must-have”. Once you leave your house, you are subjected to all kinds of public surfaces covered in other people’s germs. From door handles, to shopping carts, to seats and counters, it’s a never-ending realm of germs and bacteria left in places you can’t help buy touch!

And before you know it, you are using the same hands to touch your phone. Using disinfectant wipes or alcohol-based wipes not only cleans your phone, but also kills the germs and bacteria associated with viruses.

Don’t have a wipe handy? Spray a small amount of 70% alcohol-based solution on a microfiber cleaning cloth and gently wipe your phone. Be sure not to spray any into the ports, and completely dry the screen afterwards.

The Tape Trick

The tape trick is the best way to remove lint, dirt, and sand that have become stuck in small ports and crevices you can’t easily reach. To do this, place scotch tape along the ports, speakers, and crevices and gently roll it up. As you do that, the sand and lint stuck in your phone will adhere to the tape.

For a really small hole where the tape trick won’t work, you can use a toothpick. However, always be gentle while doing this and be sure not to puncture to deep!

Conclusion

Keeping your phone clean is not difficult, and if you wipe it down on a daily basis, you can help prevent the spread of germs and bacteria while maintaining a clear screen for viewing.
