50 Raffle Basket Themes and Ideas
Posted by Kayla Rutledge
Looking to create the perfect fundraising raffle basket for school, church, a nonprofit or work? This list of creative ideas will inspire you to find the perfect fit for people of all ages and interests. All you'll have to worry about is keeping track of the highest bid!
Family Fun
- I Scream, You Scream - Compile a basket with all the ingredients for the perfect ice cream sundae bar. (Except, of course, for the ice cream — give a gift card for that.) Different syrups, sprinkles, cones and whipped cream can create a family ice cream extravaganza!
- School Spirit - Outfit the whole family with spirit wear from your school, including shirts for kids and adults, hats, chair covers for sporting events and more. Include a restaurant gift card to a nearby popular restaurant that they can enjoy after a school event.
- Road Trip - A gas card, some fun snacks and board games made for the road that are easy to play in the car are the perfect recipe for a family road trip! To add some extra helpful items, include sunscreen, gum, coloring books or a fast food gift card (for any pit stops).
- New Baby - Put together the perfect welcoming basket for a new baby with blankets, diapers and a cute print for the nursery wall. If someone in your organization knits or sews, see if they'd contribute a tiny hat or some socks!
- Get Cooking - For this basket, put together all the necessary ingredients for an easy-to-cook meal (such as spaghetti) and dessert. Tell bidders they have to cook the meal as a family. A new skill for the kids and a family dinner for the parents — what more could you ask for?
