Description

Send us Fan Mail Nobody Told Me I’d Be the Fundraising Principal Nobody tells you that becoming a principal might also mean becoming the person everyone turns to when a team, club, classroom, or program needs money. And while your staff may have plenty of creative fundraising ideas, managing all those ideas without overwhelming your families is a whole different challenge. In this episode, Dr. Mel talks about the realities of school fundraising, balancing competing requests, supporting staff creativity, and making sure fundraising serves the bigger picture of your school community. Because sometimes the hardest part isn't raising the money. It's figuring out how much is enough, when to say yes, and how to keep everyone moving in the same direction. 🎧 Tune in for a practical conversation about one of those behind-the-scenes responsibilities nobody puts in the principal's job description—but somebody has to manage.  Support the show Loaded Tea Shop Million Podcasts List Download Upside and use my code MELINDA35278 to get 15¢ per gallon extra cash back on your first gas fill-up and 10% extra cash on your first food purchase!
