I am a mom of a teenager who does select softball. We are tired of teams that either rip you off and don't play you when you've paid or Coaches that just are not there for the girls but just for their daughter. SO, my husband and I and 2 other parents are starting a team of our own. We have several girls coming out for try outs we are still looking for some more if your child wants to play you can contact me via private message. But I am also trying to find some sponsors because it is going to cost money we don't have. I have sat down with the coaches and planned out what it will cost.
Do you have any ideas where I can go or what fundraisers to do? We are needing to get into action ASAP!

What can I do next?

The Cookie Machine in Arlington does fundraisers. I have never worked with them, but their cookies are fantastic!

I'm an Arbonne Consultant and can do a Fundraiser for you with a couple of our products...I donate 25% of the sales back to your team. My email is ____@____.com if you are interested in receiving some information. I'd be happy to email it to you so you can see how much they can earn based on what they sell. And I'm close...off Hwy 377 and Basswood/North Tarrant Pkwy.
Hope to hear from you!

Hey!!! As far as sponsors.. Just try local stores in your area.. Like Family owned resturants. Or even try to send a letter to the BIG companies. Like Coke or Hersheys.. You will be surprised on how much some people will help.. You can even try local churches.. Good Luck!!

I have just started a new business and fundraising for non-profits is what I specialize in. I am a PTA Treasurer and began growing tired of struggling with finances and doing all the work associated with fundraising, as no one ever wants to volunteer. I turned my frustrations into a business!

First of all, what ages arethe softball players you are looking for and what area are you in? I have a 13 year old daughter who might be interested in that part!

Now, for the fundraiser part - Sonics are generally pretty good about allowing groups to work a day for a portion of the sales. It is hard work, but the kids usually enjoy it. The key is to get enough parents to help so its not exhausting for any one parent to stay all day.

Lots of independent candle places do good fundraisers where you can sell candles for $15 and get $7 for your team. I can get you contact information for a couple that I know of if you are interested in that.

Good luck!

I have always found good luck with an insurance company. If you have a insurance "guy", approach him first. Inform him that this can be a right off for advertisement. You may have to get a banner with his picture and work address and tell him it will be in place for every game and tournment. Where are you located, and what age level?
Good luck!

A good fundraiser is "Butter Braids", I don't know the % that will go to the organization, but I have bought it off a fundraiser and they are awesome. If you end up doing that, let me know, I will order from you. Depending on where you live, you might try Taco Casa for sponsership, or call the local Applebees to try to do a pancake breakfast. The Applebees in Lake worth did this for the senior class of 2006.
