School fundraisers are notorious for being hard work.
The thing is: they can be time-consuming, and often cost a lot more than the profits they make, which goes against everything they set out to be.
There has to be an easier way to achieve the P&C's fundraising goal?!

To limit the workload on the schools' volunteer network, you'll find the School Uniform Shop + P&C Facebook Group. In it, you'll find marketing materials, retail advice, and a community of like-minded P&C and Sports Club representatives.
There's promotional posts and 'how-to' info for all of the major school events, like:
-
Back to School
-
School Photo Day
-
Sports Carnival
-
Colour Run
-
Kindy Orientation Day
-
Book Week
-
Colour theme days, and so much more.
Let's get started!
Add School Ponytails to your next Committee Meeting agenda, and don't forget to:If you love this idea, Pin it, Save it, or Share it!
