Hugs and Kisses

This is a great fundraiser to run around the romantic holidays (Valentine’s Day, Sweetest Day, etc) or at the end of the school year for farewells. Package Hershey’s hugs and kisses candies (the little foil wrapped chocolates) in pretty cellophane bags with a blank note card. On the note card have a location for the students’ full name and their homeroom location. This will make delivering the hugs and kisses easier. Maybe offer a seal to keep the message private. Either have the made up bags available for purchase or offer to hand deliver them to homerooms on a specific day. Send a letter to parents offering them the opportunity to purchase one for their student. Students will love receiving the candy and little love note. Have a secret admirer donation box that students, teachers, and others can contribute to. Keep a list of all students that are deserving (honor roll students, students that have done well, etc) and send them a package from the secret admirer fund.

We did a version of this for a Cancer Relay. Our kids wanted to help but all were younger and we found it challenging to include them. We set up a tent. Gave the kids something to stand on and they sold hugs for 50 cents. Everyone thought it was a wonderful idea. They raised more money than our cookie and drink booth!
