Looking for fundraising ideas for your favorite cause? We can help!
Do you represent a group of people who are passionate followers of your school, alumni association, church, club, or similar organization?
And are you looking for a creative, effective, zero-cost way to raise a substantial amount of funds for your organization?
If you answered ‘Yes’ to the above questions, then we may have a solution for you.
At CustomWovenBlankets.com, we create meaningful fundraisers for groups like yours by providing a high quality treasured heirloom for your tribe of followers, all at absolutely no cost to your organization.
How do we do it?
We accomplish this by designing and producing beautiful woven blankets (throws), that are:
a) customized with your organization’s emblem or logo, and
b) personalized with details such as an alumnus’s name and/or class year,
all woven directly into the blanket.
But what exactly are these blankets?
We’re glad you asked! Our blankets are not thin lightweight "photo blankets" or "fleece blankets" which you may see offered elsewhere. Instead, they are gorgeous woven blanket throws, a full 50 x 60 inches in size, woven right here in the USA from heavy 100% cotton thread, with the design woven directly into the fabric itself. This means the design will never 'wear off', and our throws have a deluxe, plush, soft feel to them, which our customers love.
The end result is a beautiful, highly personalized, commemorative blanket that our customers literally rave about (see just some of our actual customer comments on this page). Their blanket becomes a lifelong, practical, family heirloom that always reminds them of their cherished memories of their school, church, club, or organization. By doing so, it also keeps their connection to your organization alive, positively influencing their inclination to support future fundraising requests.
Fundraising Ideas
Schools & colleges
Include the student's graduation year and/or name woven into the blanket, such as “Mary Lenore, Class of 1973”
Churches & religious organizations
Blankets with your logo, slogan, or motto, plus the name of the person or accomplishment; for example “St Mary's Catholic Church, Dominus Vobiscum, Brennan Family”
Military Veteran Organizations
Perhaps the VFW, with the logo, Chapter, and name of the individual; for example "VFW Post 3282, Captain Mike Steele, US ARMY - Korea 1950 - 1953"
Residential Communities
Consider offering the logo of the community and name of the residents woven into the blanket; for example “Hannity Family, Spruce Creek Homesteads”
Athletic clubs, groups, & organizations
Blankets with your logo + name of the person or accomplishment; for example “Winner, Mens 50-55, Twin Cities Triathlon”
How much could you raise?
After the fundraiser is closed, a portion of the proceeds from all sales (either $10 or $20 for each blanket sold, subject to what you decide) is donated to the recipient or organization that you designate.
The total donation can become a considerable sum if you have a group of a few thousand followers, and the percentage of people who participate can be higher for close-knit and passionate groups such as church groups, school alumni, veteran organizations, etc.
