Selling Christmas Cards & Napkins
Selling Christmas cards is an easy fund raiser if you take orders and collect the money when you take the order. Oshkosh Church Supply (414-235-4330) will send you a catalog and suggestions on how much to charge for the cards and napkins. Some churches use this as an ongoing fund raiser. They order several kinds of cards and make a display fo all the cards availble. The members buy them individually for special occasions (birthdays, confirmations, anniversaries…).
Christmas Wreath Sale
Take paid orders and buy the wreaths in quantity.
