How to Run a T-Shirt Fundraiser: A Four-Step Process

If you belong to a community nonprofit, you know how difficult it can be to raise money, especially in the time of Covid-19. If you’re looking for fresh ideas on how to get funds, we have a solution for you: a t-shirt fundraiser.

The fact that you landed on this blog means you’ve already thought about it but aren’t quite sure where to begin. Don’t worry, we have a simple four-step process you can follow to start your fundraising campaign today!

Step 1: What is the Purpose of the T-Shirt Fundraiser?

Before you begin plotting out your fundraiser, you need to figure out what you’re going to be raising money for. What is it that your organization needs? Usually, the answer is pretty simple — you just need money!

But if your fundraiser is for a specific reason — such as an annual trip to the Little League World Series for your Little League team, let’s say — this can help you properly plan for a successful fundraiser.

By knowing what you’re raising money for, you’ll then be able to figure out the next steps of your fundraiser.

Step 2: Create Your T-Shirt Design

Ok, now you know why you’re raising money. So your next step is an important one — what is your t-shirt going to look like?

So let’s go back to the trip to the World Series idea. You want your shirt to reflect the idea. It doesn’t have to be something complex that takes weeks for you to create. In fact, a sketch on a napkin will work!

If you’re not the most creative person, don’t worry! We have artists on hand who can help you create something that will reflect your cause and make people want to purchase your product.

Step 3: Pick Your Products

You got the perfect design in mind. Now, it’s time to pick your products. Fortunately, TShirts in 24 has hundreds of products to choose from. So you’re not stuck with only a couple of T-shirts to choose from. In fact, we have more than just shirts. You can choose hats, masks, bags, even umbrellas!

And the best part of partnering with TShirts in 24? You’ll never have to worry about orders or inventory or collecting money. That’s our job. All you have to do is…

Step 4: Spread the Word

Design? Check. Products? Check. Ok, now what?

Now comes the hard work, the promotion. Once your products have been chosen, we will send you a link that allows you to share your products with the world. This link will allow you to share your t-shirt fundraiser with everyone and anyone. No more do you have to go door to door asking for donations! Now all you have to do is copy and paste on your social media accounts and hit send.

Simple, right? Remember, the more you promote your products, the more likely you’ll get orders. Williamsport, here we come!
