Depends on the fundraiser. Some (gift wrap) we probably get 75% or more participation. Cookie dough we get maybe 50%, Scholastic Book Fair we get 75% or more because the kids come in during their library time.

We do gift wrap and cookie dough in the fall, book fair and a catalog sale in the spring.
