Think Katydids Fundraisers Are Overpriced?

Katydids FAQs
Aren’t Katydids more expensive than other fundraisers?
They may cost more per unit—but your margin per sale is significantly higher, which means fewer sales are required to meet your goal.
What happens if we don’t sell all of them?
Orders are prepaid or billed on delivery, so there’s no need to purchase inventory upfront.
How many do most schools order?
Schools with 100 students often order in boxes (~200–300 units) and raise $3,000–$5,000. Larger groups can scale up accordingly.
Can we sell online?
Absolutely. Use their social media templates to build web forms or share directly with supporter networks.
