Custom Reversible Headbands for Schools, Sports Teams, + Events

Let’s be honest, fundraising can get a little predictable. Chocolate bars? We’ve seen it already. Discount cards? Boring. But what if your next fundraiser wasn’t just another fundraiser? What if it actually got schools and sports teams excited, showed off your school or team spirit, and made people say, “Wait... where’d you get that?!”

Say hello to your new favorite fundraising item, *drumroll please* Custom Reversible Headbands by Fundraiser Blankets®. Yup, the same team known for their cozy custom blankets is back with something sporty, stylish, and seriously fun.

Why Custom Headbands Are the Top School Fundraising Item This Year

These aren’t your average sports headbands. They’re like the MVP of spirit wear. Bold, colorful, personalized to the max, and totally reversible. That’s right: TWO designs in ONE headband. One side can show off your team logo, while the other reversible side reps your mascot, name, colors, whatever spirit your groups wants.

Our custom sports bands are made from a super-stretchy, spandex-style performance fabric that’s breathable, soft, fast drying, and moisture-wicking. Translation? They’re comfy enough to wear during a full-on football game or while cheering from the sidelines.

And they’re just $4.50 each with free shipping, no setup fees, full-color printing, and even design help included. Seriously... who does that?

Schools Shops and Spiritwear Stores – Add them to your spirit shop or sell at games for instant school pride.

Sports Teams – Football, cheer, basketball, track, soccer. Headbands keep athletes looking and feeling cool, plus keep your hair awayl.

Cheer Squads – Cheerleaders match the uniform and fire up the fans in the stadium stands!

Camps and Youth Groups – A fun, practical giveaway that everyone will wear and keep.

Event Swag and Giveaways – Branded merch for walk-a-thons, races, or teacher appreciation gifts.

Volunteer or Staff Thank-You Gifts – Because nothing says “you rock” like custom gear they’ll actually use.

And because they’re individually wrapped, they’re super hygienic and easy to distribute. Toss them in bags, hand them out at events, or sell them at your school store. Easy-peasy!

Full Customization = Full School Pride

Customized Fundraisers

These headbands are 100% customizable. Want your mascot front and center? Done. Need school colors on one side and a motivational quote on the other? You got it.

No boring templates here, the design team at Fundraiser Blankets® helps you bring your vision to life. And since you get two reversible designs in one fundraising product, you don’t have to choose between bold and bolder. You get both!

Why They’re a Fundraising Game-Changer

Let’s talk strategy. Because these headbands aren’t just cute, they’re clever. Here’s why:

Affordable to order, easy to sell: At just $4.50 each, you can price them at $10 or bundle them with other merch for even more profit.

No upfront stress: Low minimums make it easy to get started, and free design help means no graphic design skills required.

They actually get used: Unlike trinkets that get tossed in a drawer, these headbands are wearable, washable, and super visible.

They build community: Nothing says “team” like matching gear. Whether you're a school, team, or club, this creates connection and pride.


Blankets vs. Headbands: Can You Do Both?

Heck yes, you can!

Fundraiser Blankets® is already famous for their cozy, oversized custom blankets (which are still a mega hit). But the new headbands are a perfect complement.

Blankets are ideal for home, cozying up on the couch, or displaying at games. Headbands? They’re for practice, pep rallies, runs, or gym sessions. Basically, the headbands go everywhere the blankets don’t.

So why not offer both? Launch a spirit bundle: “$10 for a headband, $25 for a blanket, or $30 for both!” Your fans will eat it up and your fundraiser will skyrocket.

They’re SO Easy to Order

No complicated steps, no confusing portals. Just:

1. Visit Fundraiser Blankets® Custom Reversible Headbands
2. Share your design ideas — colors, logos, themes — and the design team works their magic.
3. Approve the proofs (they’ll send you visuals so you can be 100% happy).
4. Place your order (low minimums mean low pressure).
5. Get your headbands — fast turnaround, shipped free, already wrapped and ready to sell!

Boom. Done. You’re ready to sell, gift, fundraise or give away your headbands like a fundraising pto or booster boss.

High Profit Fundraisers

What Schools and Teams Are Saying

The buzz is real.

From social media giveaways to school team launches, Fundraiser Blankets® has been flooding timelines with happy schools, proud coaches, and kids showing off their new gear. In fact, they even gave away 25 free custom headbands to selected schools during a promo and people LOVED them.

And once those headbands started showing up on game days? Instant team spirit boost. 

Tips for a Successful Headband Fundraiser

Want to make the most out of your campaign? Try these proven tips:

Pre-sell online to build excitement and cover costs upfront.

Create a limited-edition design — people love exclusive drops.

Bundle with other merch like custom bucket hats, custom blankets, or rally towels.

Use your athletes or students as models — post pics to social media and wear them around school and games!

Set up a table at events — easy impulse buys at games, dances, or pep rallies.

Reward volunteers with freebies — a headband is a cute and useful thank-you.


A Fundraiser That Actually Works (and Families Love)

As a parent myself, I’m also tired of cookie dough and wrapping paper. BUT these headbands are lightweight, sporty, non-edible, and don’t take up space. They’re also gender-neutral, size-free, and wearable by literally everyone.

Even better? You’re supporting a women-led, teacher-owned, veteran-supporting small business that truly gets fundraising. Their mission is rooted in helping schools, teams, and communities thrive without the hassle or junk.
