The full page article showcased various fundraising ideas, using the product as a creative twist to traditional fundraising, and encourages schools to use different tools to canvass more parental and student support.  Shade4Schools is highlighted in the article, with a view of educating PTA/PTO’s on the concept of raising funds through donation based programs.  The structure of the fundraiser allows for shorter timelines and no investment at the outset.  Other fundraising ideas in the article discussed using the cookie dough concept by introducing a healthier cookie alternative, which would also garner more support from parent bodies.  For more information on fundraising ideas contact info@shade4schools.com.
