Pep Rally Fundraiser Ideas

A pep rally is a great way to boost school spirit before a big game or event, and a fundraiser is one way to raise money for the pep squad or the pep club. These fundraisers can provide money for items such as entertainment, decorations and food for the pep rally, or even transportation for the team, uniforms and other necessary equipment.

  1. Bake Sales

    • A bake sale fundraiser can be held before and during the pep rally. Members of the team, the cheerleading squad and the pep club can all bring baked goods to sell. Offering cupcakes or cookies decorated with the team mascot, the school emblem or the school colors is a good way to boost sales.

    Raffle

    • A raffle is another fundraiser idea that can be used for a pep rally. An item can be raffled off with tickets sold in the weeks leading up to the pep rally. The winner can be announced at the pep rally or at the sporting event itself. Items to be raffled can include gift cards for shops, book stores and restaurants, sporting equipment or electronics and gaming systems.

    T-shirt Sales

    • T-shirts can be sold during a pep rally as a fundraiser. The shirts should be ordered beforehand so they can be available at the pep rally. Popular themes for the shirts can be school spirit, school colors, the school mascot or the name, logo and mascot of the sporting team.

    Car Wash

    • A car wash can be a great fundraiser both before, after and during a pep rally. Members of the cheerleading squad in uniform, and members of the sporting team in their jerseys can all take part in washing cars. The car wash should be advertised a few days in advance with colorful signs posted all over the school and community, and it can also be advertised in the school newspaper.

    Pie in the Face

    • A fundraiser that includes pies being thrown can be a fun and messy event for a pep rally. Members of the sporting team can volunteer to have pies thrown at them, and participants can pay a fee to throw a pie. All you need are some willing players, disposable pie tins and whipped cream.
