Fundraiser Blankets™
We value education. As a former educator and co-founder of Learning Blankets® I knew I wanted to offer schools, sports teams and community organizations an affordable opportunity to raise funds for programs important to them with high profit margins. With Fundraiser Blankets™, you can earn money for your group or team easily because everyone loves a warm keepsake that spreads school spirit. Fundraiser Blankets™, powered by Birdy Boutique, are our way to give back to communities nationwide and help fund the programs our youth deserve and need.
Educationally Yours, Joanna Serra, COO

FAQ's
What is the minimum order amount?
The minimum order is 100 blankets. They will sell fast! If you are not sure how many to order, you can start with pre-sales and order extras to have on hand for events, or, order a specific amount and sell on hand. Please note, most schools reorder immediately.
Do we have to be a school to order?
No. We love helping K-12 schools but gladly also provide blankets for sports teams, boosters/bands, troops, clubs, churches and other organizations.
How much are the blankets?
The 50"x60" blankets are all inclusively priced at $12.50 and the 60"x70" blankets are all inclusively priced at $15.
What is the quality of the blanket?
Our fundraising blankets are 300GSM 100% polyester microplush fleece. This is a thick plush throw blanket that we also use to sell to retailers such as Meijer and Walgreens, so rest assured that our quality standards are very high. We have generic samples to send you so you can feel the difference.
Do we need artwork?
No. You can provide what you have and we can work with it if the resolution is high enough. Otherwise, we will work with you on a vision and design. Please note, we do not do any logo approvals and will assume that all artwork emailed to us allows us printing permission on the school fundraising blankets.
Are these blankets refundable?
Due to the custom work investment, once the design is approved and sent to print, no refunds are given. Fundraiser Blankets™ are a way for our company to give back to the community by offering a high profit opportunity for your organization, not ours. Therefore, once ordered, the sale is final.
What amount do we sell the blankets for?
That is completely up to your organization! Selling the wholesale $12.50 blankets at $25 to $35 MSRP is the most popular option. However, if you feel you would like to charge less or more to reach your goals, that would work too.
We recommend setting your fundraising goal amount and using the charts below to determine the price you will charge.
How much does shipping cost?
Shipping is included in the all inclusive price!
When do we receive our blankets?
On average, from the date of the order and deposit, the blankets will arrive to you in under 45 days.
We cannot wait 45 days, what now?
We do offer expedited production and shipment that takes your delivery down to 25 days, which adds $3.50 per 50"x60" blanket cost and $4.50 per 60"x70" blanket cost.
Are there any extra fees?
No, we do not charge for shipping, packaging, design, or anything else! The price is all inclusive. Why? Because this is a way for us to help communities.
How and where do we sell our blankets?
Each organization is different! You can set up a table at a sports game, sell with an order form within your school and/or district, set up at a local event, etc. The possibilities are endless!
We have a hard time getting volunteers, any suggestions?
Yes! We created this tip guide for getting more volunteers here.
Can we do pre-orders before ordering blankets?
Of course. Historically, it seems schools like to sell in two ways. They like to either send pre-order forms home and then place their order, or, they order an estimated amount and sell them in person at school or at an event. Both ways are welcome!
Do you help us sell our blankets?
We offer you a variety of free tools! We create a digital blanket mock up of your blanket for you to use so that you can share and/or pre-sell right away. We also provide digitally customized social media images, pre-order forms, display flyers, and more. They will be customized but are also in files that are editable by you for your convenience! We want you to succeed.
What if our organization cannot afford blankets?
We priced our blankets as low as possible for us to sustain the program. There are various corporate sponsorship and local community opportunities for donation and partnerships.
How can we share this?
You can send interested organizations to our website, fundraiserblankets.com or download the flyer here.
