At Bag of Joy, we believe fundraising should feel good — and be fun and joyful.
Whether you’re a kid or teen running your own project, a student leading a school club, a family giving together, or a company team looking to make a difference, every small idea can turn into something big.
Explore our ready-to-use fundraising ideas and toolkits to start spreading joy in your own way.
Fundraising Ideas You Can Try
Every idea starts somewhere — and these are a few that I’ve tried myself!
Each one made giving back fun, simple, and meaningful.
You can download the toolkit to make it your own and start spreading joy in your community too.
I’ll also share ways you can do each one as a family or as a company, so everyone can join in the joy of giving.
