One of the best and proven fundraising ideas for a lot of small projects is the printing of custom calendars for sale. These fundraising calendars can be an easy thing to develop and sell for anyone, even amateurs. In this special guide to fundraising calendars, I will tell you about the common design themes that can be applicable for your custom calendars. Use these ideas to start you off developing great color calendars that can give you well earned funds for your project.

a. The people theme – One of the most common but yet still very profitable design theme for fundraising calendars is the people theme. This kind of theme of course involves selling custom calendars with pictures of people in them. Those people can be beautiful and sexy models, celebrities, prominent community figures, national/local heroes, inventors, innovators etc. etc. As long as people can find inspiration, entertainment and even pleasure in seeing those certain kinds of people, you can apply them for your fundraising calendars. Believe me, these types of color calendars sell all the time, and you will probably print calendars like this at least once.

b. The animal theme – Now, another common theme that many people like is the animal theme. Almost everyone is an animal lover deep inside. That is why a collection of cute or wonderful images of certain animals is a great concept for custom calendars for fundraising. You can use cute cats and dogs as a good base for your design of course. Sometimes, you can also go a bit different and go for a collection of exotic or rare animals. Environmentalists of course will love it if you feature endangered specials and other important “poster animals” that represents the situation of mother earth today. So if you can access images of animals for your color calendars, an animal theme for your calendars can be a great idea for your fundraising efforts.

c. The nature theme – Beyond animals, people can also be equally attracted to buying color calendars with a nature theme. By collecting impressive images of natural panoramas and exquisite vistas, you can have a good and relaxing color calendar primed for selling. The best images from nature typically involves the sky (sunrise or sunset) as well as images of plants/tress and unusual rock formations. As long as the images are impressive, with great lighting and a phenomenal subject, your natural theme images for custom calendars can still sell good and help you with your fundraising.

d. The artwork theme – If you see people in museums, you will know that people can’t get enough of painted and canvassed art. That is why for custom calendar printing, it is a good idea to also use an artwork theme. By gaining the rights to reprint great works of art for your color, you can get many people who appreciate beauty to buy your color calendars. As long as you pick the right artwork genre that is best for your market, you can be assured of a great source for fundraising through those firms attracted with calendar printing.

Great! Now you know all of the most common design concepts that are effective for fundraising calendars. Believe me, all of these concepts can guarantee you to at least be decently successful with your fundraising campaign. So try them out at least once and you should see that investments in calendar printing promotions are well worth the risk.
