Stop Selling Cookie & Pizza Dough: The School Fundraiser Parents Actually Want in 2025

If you’re still selling cookie or pizza dough, discount cards, raffle tickets, or sorting products to raise money for your school, you’re doing way more work than you need to.

Parents are tired. Volunteers are stretched thin. And most fundraisers?
They barely move the needle.

In 2025, parents aren’t looking for another challenge.
They’re looking for a way to support their school that feels simple, modern, and actually worth it.


 The Problem with Traditional School Fundraisers

Every school has run at least one of these:

  • Cookie & pizza dough
  • Car wash day
  • Random kitchen gadgets

Here’s why these models just don’t work anymore:

❌ Too Much Effort for Too Little Return

Volunteers organize the campaign and sort orders. And in the end? Schools barely break even if they’re lucky.

❌ People Don’t Want More Work

Most fundraiser coordinators don’t want more work. What they do want is an easy way to launch a campaign that will make a difference.

❌ They Don’t Scale

Fundraisers require logistics, inventory, pickups, and chasing down payments. They don’t grow with your school.


What Parents Actually Want in 2025

School fundraising shouldn’t feel like a chore.
It should feel like a shared mission.

Here’s what today’s parents actually want from a fundraiser:

✅ No Pressure

No guilt. No obligation to buy or sell things.

✅ Direct Shipping

No more storing and sorting orders.

✅ Support Canadian Brands

All products in our catalogue are made locally.

✅ Transparency

A clear reason for the campaign. Show me what we’re raising for, and how it helps the kids.

✅ Speed & Simplicity

I should be able to support the school in under 30 seconds from my phone.

✅ Impact, Not Inventory

Let my support go directly to the school, not toward shipping fees and overhead costs.


🚀 The Fundraising Model That’s Replacing Cookie Dough in 2025

Schools across Canada, especially in BC, Alberta, and Ontario, are switching to a new model that’s raising 3X to 5X more with less effort and no junk to sell.

It’s called Brightraiser.


What Makes Brightraiser Different?

🟢No inventory to purchase upfront

🟢 No pressure selling to friends or coworkers

🟢 No burnt-out volunteers

🟢 Direct shipping to your supporters

Instead, Brightraiser gives your school a digital campaign page that supporters can share in seconds. Parents, students, and the wider community can contribute in the way that’s most meaningful to them, and they can see progress toward the school’s fundraising goal in real time.

💡 It’s fundraising that feels more like GoFundMe, but built specifically for schools.
