Fundraising Project Ideas

Project ideas are limited only by the child's imagination*.  Below are examples of fun and successful Kids For Wish Kids projects.  Use one or create your own!

*Please note that the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Massachusetts and Rhode Island does not allow door-to-door or telephone solicitation.  Complete guidelines will be provided when you enroll in the program.

For Schools

  • Hold a school play or concert: 
    For your next school performance, you can charge admission and donate the proceeds to the Foundation.
  • Spotlight those teachers: 
    It's amazing what students and parents will pay to see their favorite teachers do!  Organize a Teacher Talent Show, a Pie-in-the-Face Contest, or a Faculty Dress-Down Day.
  • Have a Grade-a-Thon or Read-a-Thon:
    Students collect pledges from friends and relatives based on the number of "A" grades they receive on the next report card, or on the number of books they can read in a month.
  • Conduct a Student-Teacher Sporting Event:
    Students and teachers can compete against each other at volleyball or basketball, raising funds through admissions and refreshment sales.

For Any Youth Group

  • Lace up for a Fun Run:
    Money is raised from entry fees and local merchants can donate prizes.
  • Sell Candy-Grams:
    Each sweet has a personalized message attached...great for Valentine's Day and other holidays!
  • Host a Movie Night:
    Show a fun flick, charge admission, and sell popcorn!
  • Sell Make-A-Wish wristbands:
    Order blue wristbands from the Foundation that say "Share the Power of a Wish."  Sell as many as you can!
  • Create an art gallery:
    Charge admission to the gallery opening featuring kids' artwork.
  • Host a bake sale:
    Kids and parents can bake together to sell sweet treats to the community.
