If you’re wondering where to start for your fundraising events, here are some ideas!

Hot Lunch

Provide students and staff with the opportunity to donate money and receive a hot lunch of grilled cheese, pancakes, pasta, and more!


Noodles and DoodlesHost a pasta lunch or dinner event where students can “auction” of artwork they’ve​created to support Hats on For Healthcare.


Mario Kart Tournament
Host an all inclusive Mario Kart tournament during lunch or recess. Have teams of two donate a set amount to participate and compete against their fellow students to become the Grand Prix winner!

Read-a-Thon
Students are given a pledge sheet to ask family members, or other people in the community, if they are willing to support them by donating a set amount of money for every book they finish in the month of March.

Grade Wars
Have a teacher represent a particular grade and take a picture wearing their craziest hat. Then display these images in a safe location for students to donate money into their grade’s slot in order to win a prize at the end for having the most money raised. Prizes could include bleachers at the next assembly, an extra recess or free activity period, or a free dress down day.

Trivia Event
Sell tickets to a trivia or quiz event on a topic of your choosing (make sure to include a crazy fact about headwear in your topic!) You can also choose to sell small snack items like popcorn or candy bags.
