Kathy's Take 

This is one of my favorite fundraisers for busy sports families. The 50% profit margin is strong, the setup is simple, and you can literally run the entire fundraiser from your phone. I also love that individual athletes can host their own fundraiser to help cover travel sports expenses, camps, lessons, gear, and more. .

Kathy’s Take:
I really love Charleston Wrap’s wrapping paper. It's  thick, high quality, and once you use it, it's hard to go back to other brands. Charleston Wrap is sooo much more than just wrapping paper now though! This is a strong option for groups that want practical products people may already be excited to buy, without worrying about upfront costs or meeting a sales quota. Reach out to Brittany, Fundraiser Consultant, at  cs7@charlestonwrap.com or 866-395-2926 ext 230.  Tell her I sent you! She'll take good care of you.

I've personally hosted a Crew Carwash fundraiser for a volleyball club and found it incredibly easy to manage. Everything was handled from my phone, supporters received digital codes, and the ability to track sales by individual athlete made it a great fit for a travel sports program.

Another great fundraiser to consider is CFS Mattress Fundraisers. Families share sales with supporters, and a percentage goes back to your team or group. It’s a simple option that doesn’t require product handling. Mention Sports Mom Collective to get an additional $100 donation following completion of a fundraiser!  (*Chicagoland area only)

 I really like the flexibility here. Groups can sell face-to-face using brochures, online through a custom fundraising link and QR code, or combine both methods for maximum reach. It's an easy way to involve local supporters while also reaching grandparents, alumni, and out-of-town family members. .

Fundraiser Blankets helps schools, sports teams, booster clubs, and organizations raise money by selling custom blankets featuring your school name, team logo, mascot, or colors. The company was also featured on Shark Tank and offers several blanket styles to fit different budgets and fundraising goals.

✔ Product Fundraiser

✔ Featured on Shark Tank

✔ Custom Team-Branded Blankets

✔ Great for Schools, Teams & Booster Clubs

✔ No Registered 501(c)(3) Required

✔ Free Sample Available

✔ Minimum Orders Apply

✔ Works Well for Spirit Stores & Concession Stands

I like this fundraiser because blankets are something sports families will actually use. 

Since minimum orders apply (typically 50–75 blankets per design, depending on the style you choose), I think this fundraiser works best for organizations with a strong fan base or a plan to sell through a spirit store, concession stand, tournaments, or other school events.

One thing I like is that you can request a free sample before making a decision. It's a great way to check the quality and see exactly what you'll be offering your supporters.

Good Clean Fundraising helps your group raise money through everyday essentials like laundry detergent and cleaning products. A portion of every sale goes straight to your team—no upfront cost, no hassle, just practical fundraising that works.
