How To Run A Fundraiser From Home
Fundraising doesn’t have to be complicated even if you’re working from home or your school is learning remotely. At Expressions Fundraising, we’ve made it easy to turn your child’s creativity into cherished keepsakes while raising meaningful funds. Our school tea towel fundraising kits are perfect for schools, childcare centres, homeschoolers and clubs across Australia.
Why Choose a Home-Based Fundraiser?
Home-based fundraiser ideas are flexible, inclusive and contact-free, perfect for today’s busy families. Whether you're managing from a kitchen table or via email, you can run a successful fundraiser online and collect digital artworks to be turned into beautiful, ethically made tea towels, tote bags and aprons.
Creative Fundraiser Activities to Try at Home
There’s no limit to what your community can create! Our ethical fundraising ideas are based around fun, accessible activities:
1. Self-Portrait Class Collage
Invite each child to draw a self-portrait and compile them into one collaborative design, a beautiful class “photo” for 2025.
2. Favourite Things Drawing
Have children draw their favourite home activity. From baking with Mum to playing with pets, every drawing is a memory in the making.
3. Group or Year-Level Themes
Create a traditional year-level design or start a new school tradition with your custom printed tea towels Australia-wide.
4. Individual Artwork Pieces
Each child can submit their own unique design, drawing, painting or even a collage. If it can be scanned or photographed, we can print it on our organic cotton tea towels.
Easy Ordering and Cash-Free Payments
Families can place orders through their school’s system or let us create a simple fundraising store for online sales. Our online portal makes it easy for everyone to participate, no handling of cash or order forms required.
