Funding Guide for Custom School Planners
At School Planner Company, we know how important it is for schools to balance educational tools and programs with annual budgets.
Custom school planners offer a powerful way to enhance student organization and engagement. Here are a few strategies to consider for raising the funds to support planners for teachers and students.
Funding Methods to Consider
Advertisements
Partner with local businesses or school-friendly organizations to sponsor pages within your custom planner. Consider businesses that champion their community as prospects. Offer dedicated sections or full-page ads for premium sponsors. Highlight businesses that provide student-friendly services such as SAT prep or school supplies.
PTO Contributions
Because planners help improve student accountability and school-home communication, this investment often aligns with PTO goals. Involve your PTO in fundraising events dedicated to covering planner costs to leverage connections, resources, and man power in finding creative ways to fund the cost of important educational tools.
Events & Fundraisers
Hosting school-wide fundraisers is a time-tested method to raise money for student-focused resources, bringing the entire community together to support education. Plan a “Planner Drive” where a portion of ticket sales or proceeds from event activities (e.g., raffles or bake sales) go directly to planner funding.
Alumni Support
Alumni networks can be a valuable resource for school funding. Reach out to past graduates who want to give back and explain how planners enhance the academic experience of current students. Their businesses may find the opportunity to donate the cost of valuable educational tools as a win for their community engagement and marketing teams.
