Run a Successful Cookie Dough Fundraising Campaign

Who doesn’t love the smell of fresh baked cookies in the oven? It can be such a quality time spent with the family. Imagine this: All of the family inside the house on a cold winter day watching a movie baking fresh cookies in the kitchen. This is not only a great time spent with family but a very simple and profitable fundraising tool for you.

Why Choose A Cookie Dough Fundraising Campaign?

A cookie dough campaign is a win-win campaign for you and your donors. This is a highly profitable fundraiser with an easy to sell product.

The cookies are very easy to sell. They usually come in 8-10 different varieties depending on the fundraising company. A few of the favourites include Sugar Dough, Oatmeal Raisin, Peanut Butter, White Chunk Macadamia Nut and of course everybody's favourite, chocolate chip. When you talk to donors about this campaign, it’s not really an issue of whether they will contribute, but what cookie they will choose!

The cookie dough fundraising campaign is a very streamlined, no hassle system. Your participants will be provided with order-taker forms which they’ll use to collect orders. Most cookie dough brochures show close-up pictures of 10 of the most popular variety of cookies. Once all orders are collected, the tally will be called in to your fundraiser company who will ship your product. Depending on the amount of tubs you’ve sold some fundraising companies will actually ship your order to you free! You don’t have to keep stock and never get left with more product than you’ve sold!

Simple to Use for Your Donors

Depending on the variety of cookies ordered, your donor will pay $12 to $14 dollars for a tub. Each tub makes up to 48 cookies. (Or if you let your kids make the cookies, 1 really big one!) The cookie dough can be easily frozen in the tub it comes in and when it’s time to make them, simply scoop the dough and place it on the cookie sheet. Some cookie dough comes in pre-portioned sizes; individually wrapped so there’s no scooping required. All this combined with the fact that the cookies have zero grams of Trans fat!

The Missing Ingredient for Successful Cookie Dough Fundraising Campaign Is…

All that’s required for a successful cookie dough fundraising campaign is simply the effort to set it in motion. With an easy sell product, no stock to carry and a high profit ratio, successful fundraising doesn’t get much easier than this.
