From One Food Truck to a Long Island Favorite: Chiddy’s Gives Back!

Great food brings people together. Great communities are what make a local business like ours possible. At Chiddy’s Cheesesteaks, giving back to Long Island is our way of saying thanks to the neighbors, families, and loyal customers who helped us grow and continue to make Chiddy’s Cheesesteaks a success.

What began as a single food truck in 2014 has become a Long Island favorite with locations across Long Island and Queens, and a five-time Best of Long Island winner. Along the way, we've learned that supporting our communities means more than serving delicious cheesesteaks. It means showing up for the people who have supported us.

That's why we've created a gift card fundraiser that helps local teams, schools, clubs, and nonprofit organizations raise money while giving supporters something they'll love: Chiddy's cheesesteaks!

Among the many fundraising ideas Long Island organizations consider, ours offers something refreshingly simple: an easy-to-sell product, straightforward pricing, and a meaningful return for your organization.

Calling All Long Island Youth Sports Teams: Let's Raise Some Money!

Little League, youth football, soccer clubs, travel teams, and high school booster organizations: Chiddy's is rooting for you!

From uniforms and equipment to tournament fees and travel expenses, the costs add up quickly. If you're researching fundraising ideas for sports teams, our program helps turn community enthusiasm into financial support.

Unlike traditional fundraising ideas for sports teams that require hosting events or selling merchandise, Chiddy's gift cards practically sell themselves. After all, who doesn't love a great cheesesteak?

How Chiddy's Gift Card Fundraiser Works

Here's the winning play:

  • Your organization purchases $750 worth of Chiddy's gift cards for $500.
  • Each gift card sells for $30, and your organization keeps $10 from every card sold.
  • The 25-card minimum represents $750 in gift cards purchased for $500.
  • Sell all 25 cards, and your organization raises $250!
  • Got a bigger roster? A team of 20 players selling 5 cards each moves 100 cards and raises $1,000.

Since this program is built for fundraising for nonprofit organizations, participating groups must provide supporting documentation, such as a nonprofit ID number.

It's one of the simplest fundraising ideas for sports teams: a gift card fundraiser designed to help your team reach its goals while treating supporters to something delicious.

Schools, PTAs, Clubs & Community Organizations: You're Invited!

Sports teams aren't the only groups that deserve a little extra support, and school fundraising ideas don't have to mean another bake sale!

Whether you're exploring school fundraising ideas for classroom resources, PTA fundraising ideas for enrichment programs, or fundraising ideas for clubs planning their next big activity, Chiddy's wants to help.

Our program also supports fundraising for nonprofit organizations and community groups working to make Long Island an even better place to live.

For organizations comparing fundraising ideas Long Island families can enthusiastically support, Chiddy's offers a delicious reason to participate.

Let's Make Your Next Fundraiser a Winner!

From school fundraising ideas and PTA fundraising ideas to fundraising ideas for clubs and youth athletics, Chiddy's is proud to give back to the communities that made our success possible.
