PTA Fundraising Ideas

PTA Fundraiser

PTA fundraising is critical to so many schools which is why we love helping parents find great PTA fundraising ideas.  We help thousands of groups raise the money they need and want to help you with your PTA fundraiser too.

PTA’s offer so much to the schools they serve. We want to help make sure your PTA fundraiser meets or exceeds your expectations.

PTA fundraising ideas are endless. Some are unique, others are classic, tested, and true. The most important thing about PTA fundraisers, though, is whether they will make the money you require. Since most parent groups are limited in the number of fundraisers they can hold,  we suggest you review the list carefully. All of these programs are successful at raising money.

On this page, we provide a starting point to locate the best PTA fundraising ideas for your group. We have attempted to include fundraisers that do not require any money upfront, others that offer extremely high profits, and still others that have very low minimums. Further down the page, you can read tips and suggestions on how to maximize the results of your next fundraiser.

If you don’t find the perfect fundraiser on this page we invite you to continue to browse our website and find other PTA fundraising ideas. Or call one of our experienced sales specialists toll-free, 866-974-8282, and they can offer useful insights for you.

Frozen Cookie Dough Fundraiser

Gourmet Cookie dough tub fundraiser has long been one of the bestselling fundraising products. Everyone loves freshly baked gourmet cookie dough!  As times have changed supporters have come to prefer frozen cookie dough that is already formed into perfectly sized cookies over a gourmet cookie dough tub fundraiser.  There is no longer a need to thaw a cookie dough tub fundraiser before baking.  Our popular Mrs Fields Cookie Dough Tub Fundraiser comes with 36-40 frozen cookies.  These cookies go directly from the freezer into the oven and in 10-15 minutes you can enjoy freshly baked cookies.  No need to plan ahead to thaw a large cookie dough tub!  Mrs Fields Cookie Dough Tub Fundraiser has become the most popular fundraising program because of the retail selling price. We offer 6 of the most popular cookie dough flavors.  Instead of a cookie dough tub fundraiser you can offer your supporters Mrs Fields Cookie Dough for only $25 each. We offer 50% profit and free shipping for orders over 400 boxes.  Best of all there is no cost to get started.

What You Should Know

There is no money needed upfront for this cookie dough fundraiser. We provide free brochures, order forms and cash collection envelops. You pay us after you sell your Gourmet Cookie tubs when you place your order. The money you’ve collected can pay for your order.
