WELCOME TO SAGA! 

"Zoos are becoming facsimiles - or perhaps caricatures - of how animals once were in their natural habitat. If the right policies toward nature were pursued, we would need no zoos at all."                       - Michael J. Fox

Fundraising

 

Have a lot you want to do but very little money to do it with?


Hint: If you are raising money for something specific like a field trip or a charity, advertise what the money will go towards.  People like to know they are contributing to a good cause.

Check out these simple ideas to make money for your club...


Bake Sale: Have your friends and parents bake delicious, vegan baked goods and set up a table in your school or community to sell them. 

Sell merchandise: Many websites make customized t-shirts, water bottles, arm bands, and frisbees that you can put your group information on.

Raffles: Ask parents, teachers, and local store owners to donate services or items to a raffle and sell tickets at an event.

Thanksgiving: Set up a table at your school to sell vegan pies to your friends and their parents. You can also mail out order forms to your friends' parents and have them delivered on Thanksgiving. Collect recipes and get your parents to help you bake the pies.

Walk for Animals: Host a walk for animals in your town and have parents and teachers sponsor students for every mile they walk.  Organize the walk, make a route and offer drinks and refreshments.

Easter candy sale: Sell Easter candy and take the opportunity to educate your schoolmates about adopting bunnies instead of buying them.

Do-It-Yourself Car Wash: The complete guide to doing it

Hint: When you buy supplies for your car wash, make sure you buy eco friendly car wash cleaner.

 

Spirit Chain: People buy links on their class's paper chain for .25 or .50. Each has 1 (or 2) colors and at the end the class with the longest chain is named most spirited. Good before homecoming.

Donation containers: Ask local stores if you can leave donations cans at their counters. Design the cans, empty them regularly, and thank the store owners!

Can and bottle collection and recycling: If your community pays for can and bottle recycling, ask people to donate theirs on a given day and bring them to the recycling center.

Dog walking: Your group members can get paid to walk the dogs of members of your community for a day or more.

Yard work: Your club members can get donations by going door-to-door in their neighborhoods offering to collect leaves, shovel snow, weed, mow the lawn, etc.


Yard sale: Ask parents at your school to donate old clothes and unwanted items to a yard sale to be held at the school. Then invite them all to the event.

Lazy for a day/at Lunch: Ask your principal if you can put a lounge chair in the classroom or in the lunchroom. Then sell tickets ($.25 or $.50 each) to students to win the chance to eat lunch or sit in class in the chair.

Guessing game: Fill a large jar with a large number of small candies (jelly  beans, for example) and get students to guess the amount of candies for a donation. The student who gets closest wins the jar.

Pumpkin sale: Sell pumpkins at your school before halloween.
