What fundraising ideas work at a pink out game?
| Idea | How it works |
|---|---|
| Pink at the gate, donations at halftime | Students swap school colours for pink and collect donations at halftime |
| Pink ribbon face painting | Paint ribbons on fans before the game and at halftime for a donation |
| Shoot-a-thon | Sell mini footballs as the stands fill; at halftime cheerleaders hold pink hoops for fans to throw through |
| Selfie donations | Photos with the cheer squad in pink for a donation |
| Pink pumpkins | Cheerleaders decorate pumpkins in pink to auction at the game |
| Pink penny jars | Classroom jars during the week; the winning teacher dresses in pink |
All six come from Varsity’s game-day fundraising list (source: Varsity). Pick two or three you can staff well rather than all of them.
How do you stage the halftime moment?
- Invite survivors from the school community onto the field or the track.
- Read their names over the public-address system.
- Dim what you can: the stands and the track, while the field lights stay up for safety.
- The cheer squad switches to pink on the announcement, with poms raised.
- The student section lights up with pink face stickers on the same cue.
Agree the cue with the announcer and the band director in advance so it lands together.
What should the cheer squad wear and carry?
Most squads keep their uniform and add pink: bows, ribbons and poms. Metallic pink poms are a one-night purchase. Light-up poms switch to pink by remote for the pink out and back to school colours for every other game, so the squad buys one set for the season. See how to choose cheer pom poms.
Which giveaways put the stands in pink?
- Pink light-up face stickers handed out at the student gate and lit for halftime.
- Custom ribbon-shaped stickers for a district-wide pink out (1,000-unit minimum, quoted).
- Pink shirts sold by the booster club, often the biggest earner.
Custom LED face stickers in your school’s shape and colours start at a 1,000-unit order and are quoted. A University of Texas alumni VIP suite ordered 1,000 from us; see custom LED face stickers in bulk.
