A Road Map to Fundraising Success:

Estimate What Can Be Raised

Part of this process involves making a budget. For many parent groups, this begins with a look at the previous year’s profits as well as asking around. Nannie Berry Elementary is looking into doing a carnival and estimating possible proceeds by talking to other schools in the community and by factoring in the school’s location on a busy road. The budget also depends on transitions; Oakdale Elementary in Normal, Ill., for example, had to lower its estimates for fundraising this year after redistricting took sixth-graders out of its school.
To estimate potential income when you’re trying a new fundraiser, start with your school’s enrollment; look especially at recent enrollment growth or decline. Then, based on experience, figure the average percentage of families likely to participate and the average number of items a family is likely to sell if it’s a product sale.
Look also at whether participation has recently risen or decreased. If possible, look at whether incentives such as student prizes or classroom participation charts have had an impact on sales.
To figure a reasonable goal, look at past history and your school’s demographics and what parents are likely to support. Survey parents. Compare past goals to actual results. And be sure to keep track of all this data to pass on to the next group for help with their goal-setting.
