Greetings! Well, here we are at the end of August. A lot of you have started school already, while many others wait until after Labor Day to head back to the classroom.
I hope you’ve enjoyed the selection of articles on TopSchoolFundraisers. com this month. I’ve tried to focus on a number of issues that are important for starting your fundraising year off right.
As always, if you are looking for fundraising ideas or great products to raise money for your school, please head on over to FastTrackFundraising.com! They have an amazing selection of products with proven results.
In addition to this blog, we also have a sister blog, StepByStepFundraising.com. That site has a broader non-profit focus, but there are some terrific articles that would be helpful to anyone looking to learn more about raising money. Below, I have posted some links to articles that appreared on StepByStepFundraising this month. I hope you take a few minutes to check them out!
Thanks, and we’ll see you right back here in September!
