Fundraising Australia Highlight: Kurrajong Primary’s Tea Towel Win
At Expressions Fundraising Australia, we love celebrating success stories. Kurrajong Public School recently took home the top prize in our Early Bird offer, earning a full refund for their school tea towel fundraising project!
Why Kurrajong Chose Tea Towels for Fundraising
Kurrajong Public School has a long-standing tradition of running a tea towel fundraiser to support their biennial Spring Fair, an event that brings together families, teachers and the wider community. All profits from the fair contribute directly to purchasing much-needed school resources.
This year’s theme, ‘Kurrajong Gives Back’, holds special significance. The school extended invitations to families and local businesses impacted by bushfires, floods or the pandemic, providing them space to advertise and participate in the fair, an outstanding example of ethical fundraising ideas in action.
Celebrating Community and Creativity
The tea towel project was more than a fundraiser, it was a celebration of unity and creativity. Each student contributed a self-portrait or drawing, which was expertly compiled by the Expressions team into a collaborative keepsake. It’s a fun, meaningful way for students to leave their mark while creating treasured gifts for loved ones.
Feedback from Kurrajong Public School
Karen, a fundraising coordinator at the school, shared:
“We love this fundraiser because every child is involved and it results in a beautiful, custom printed tea towel that’s also a practical gift. Expressions made everything so simple with their amazing fundraising kit. Customer service was top-notch, and the turnaround time was impressive. The quality of the organic cotton tea towels is fantastic - highly recommended.”
