Reusable Bag Fundraising Program
Our reusable bag contest generated overwhelming support from area schools, teachers and parents who are looking for ways to engage children in environmental awareness. This prompted Bulletin Bag to develop a new Reusable Bag Fundraising program for schools, church groups, youth groups and nonprofits.
Reusable bag fundraisers provide a fantastic vehicle to raise money, raise awareness about the environment and build support and pride in the nonprofit. Friends, family and community members will feel good about the environment while supporting the charitable cause.
Several bags are now available at Bulletin Bag [.com] at reduced prices for fundraisers. Bags are printed with the nonprofit logo, or artwork designed specifically for the bag. The bags are re-sold at a 50% profit margin, providing a fun, feel-good and profitable fundraising experience.

The winning artist will have their design printed on 1000 special Bulletin Bags, receive public recognition and win a $100 gift card!
Teachers and youth leaders can register their youth group for the drawing contest. The Bulletin Bag team will send out a contest kit, which includes information about the problems with disposable paper and plastic bags, entry forms, official rules and a return envelope for mailing completed forms (please allow 2 weeks to receive your Contest Kit).
Children can also download entry forms for the reusable bag drawing contest at the Bulletin Bag website, or they can pick up a form at their local Shaw’s Supermarket.
