Print companies - helping schools to help their students (10/04/2016)

Providing a top quality education to their students is an area where schools excel, but in order to do so, they may find that they need to do some fundraising to pay for the “extras”. It can be hard to come up with new and innovative ideas for this, but a printing company will be able to help.

One fundraiser that pairs fun with raising money is to have a community fair. This can include any number of activities, including bounce castles, face painting, popcorn and hot dog sales, simple carnival style games, teacher and principal dunk tanks, or neighborhood tag sales. Banner printing can help add to the festive air by creating colorful decorations that will attract the attention of passersby. Flyer printing can be put to use in creating effective and low-cost advertising for the event.

Another way to raise money that parents may really appreciate is the sale of calendars. These can be printed with all of the dates that will be important throughout the school year, and can include a list of teachers’ names and contact info, bus schedules, reading and study suggestions, and other details. They can even have a QR code added to them that lets parents immediately access the school’s website, PowerSchool site, and other helpful information. All of this is possible with the help of a stationery printing company.

Fundraising is a fact of life for many schools, and with the help of a print company, it can be a real success.
