Flower Fundraisers That Work for Chicago Schools 

Why Your Chicago Community Group Will Love Selling Flowers

Many Chicago families already buy mums in the fall and hanging baskets in the spring, so offering a flower fundraiser just makes sense. Instead of trying to sell people something they don’t really want, your group gets to offer beautiful flowers that people can enjoy at home or give away as gifts. All of our flowers are grown in our own greenhouses, and we deliver them right to your chosen pickup spot in the city or the suburbs. 

A Fundraiser Designed for Your Busy Schedule

We know Chicago schools, churches, and community groups are always busy. That’s why we make our flower fundraisers as simple as possible for you. We give you clear instructions, marketing materials, easy ordering tools, and a process that won’t overwhelm your volunteers. Whether you’re trying to raise money for a foundation, a trip, new equipment, or pay-to-play fees, our fundraiser gives you everything you need to have a simple and successful fundraiser.

Flower Fundraiser FAQs

How early should we schedule our flower fundraiser?

We recommend scheduling your fundraiser at least 3-4 months in advance to secure the best dates for your group. When in doubt, book earlier rather than later to guarantee your spot in our fall or spring lineups.

What types of groups do you work with?

JOCO Growers partners with any group looking to raise funds. The groups we work with the most are schools, sports teams, class trip organizers, marching bands, and choirs. We also work with churches, nonprofits, and other community groups.

Can we run both your spring and fall fundraisers in the same school year?

Yes! Many of the Chicago schools and community groups we work with run both sales in the same year. Since our products are seasonal, many supporters will buy flowers from both sales.

How much money can our Chicago school raise?

It really depends on how many supporters participate in your sale, but our flower fundraisers typically do very well for our partners because flowers are products that people already plan to buy every year. You can increase your sales by using our marketing materials and spreading the word about your sale on social media. You can also encourage supporters to donate extra funds or purchase flowers for their friends and neighbors to increase sales.

How many volunteers will we need to run the flower pickup day?

It depends on how many flowers you sell, but most groups only need 3 to 6 volunteers on pickup day. These volunteers will talk with families, check off orders, and help your supporters carry their flowers. We’ll give you tips on how to organize your tables and pickup areas so your pickup day runs as smoothly as possible.

How can we promote our flower fundraiser?

We’ll give you both physical and digital marketing materials to help you advertise your sale. Many Chicago schools also advertise their fundraisers through newsletters, PTO meetings, social media posts, and schoolwide reminders. You can also hand out our marketing materials to churches and restaurants in your community.

Our Reviews from the Windy City

Our school PTO has had an amazing experience working with JOCO growers over the last several years. JOCO does all of the leg work in providing order forms, marketing materials, and training on their online system, and is super responsive with support. The product is very high quality -- the flowers and pots are beautiful, and the delivery process is easy! For our PTO, this is always the most successful fundraiser of the year. Highly recommend!

Last year my son’s school did a fundraiser through JOCO and when I tell you, my porch was completely full of Mum‘s. Oh my goodness they are so big and so beautiful. You are missing out if your children or somebody you know is doing a fundraiser through them, I recommend 10 out of 10!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Joco Growers! They are a fantastic company to work with on our school flower fundraisers! They go above and beyond during the entire process, from ordering to delivery day. The brochures are gorgeous and display exactly what you're ordering.
