Okay, new info. Apparently sponsors is a way to do in. In short, I write a letter to McDonalds, Walmart, Home Depot, etc. and ask for them to contribute. My friend has already gotten a couple hundred from McDonalds, Home Depot, and Artic Circle. I still need to find out a little more info abou it but if you have any suggestions of places who I could ask... :)
A quick way to fundraising I have found is to make a cute little craft project, moderate price, and go to a neighborhood where great-grandmothers'/grandfathers' live.
that works I guess becuz there isn't the pressure of being parents on them and they like children. have u checked the internet? maybe there's some kind of website with all the info u need.
if you're good at making sweets, try and have a bakesale at your school. You would have to ask the school board first, but it's still worth a try.Also, try going to more home town businesses too. If they like what your trying to earn the money for, they might donate, although not as much, but at least you can walk around instead of having to drive the whole time.
I hope this helps, good luck! :)
Thanks guys! Actually I found out today that there is a spatland website (www.spatland.org) and there are some fundraisers our school is doing but I'm not sure how much it will bring in for me personally.
you could try a carnival, or a party, or even a concert if you and some friends play an intstument. you could charge an admission fee
if any of ur friends need the money for the trip also or if they're willing to help then you could set up some kind of activity...maybe a mini version of the olympics where they can compete or watch and pay an admission fee?\or maybe you can talk to your principal and they'll let you and some friends run an after school program like arts and crafts or private lessons.....
I don't really know what you guys are talking about, but I know that it is a fundraiser. Anyways, yeah, knitting scarves and other things is a good idea.
hmm... lets c what else i have up my sleeve. hmm... if ur a good painter then u good paint the ocean or something. u could also sell some things that u dont want anymore
that could work! in 3rd grade we had to practice selling stuff so my mom and I made some origami stuff that we sold for "bear bucks"I got a handamde card set with cardstock and templates to make real life looking cards! see if you can get some kind of kit or something and make and sell.
Carnivals are good ideas, and since it's getting close to Halloween, make a haunted house and charge admission, you can advertise by radio or newspaper or whatever you can think of. Do you have a farmer's market? Or a local craft fair? 'cause you can make something and sell it there.Again, since it's close to Halloween, you could make candy and sell that.
You could make an art gallery, maybe sell refreshments there, and you could play some music. People can buy your artwork, your refreshments, and maybe donate if they like the music/artwork.
I like the concert idea.
Yep! I'm so happy she does, too. You know what I mean, right? She has all those fun activities and the picnics at Disneyland and Wild Rivers and stuff. :) Plus, they have the ICEE machine! :D I'm so proud of myself! :P JK!
since it's close 2 halloween, while ur trick-or-treating, u could ask 4 some small donation, and leave a donation box outside ur house 2, although i doubt u'll earn very much that way...baby-sitting is also a very popular way of getting money...hope this helps...
SCHOOL DANCE!!! u can organize a school dance, and have there b a small fee (couple of dollars is how much it costs @ my middle school...). ppl like dances, i bet u could get a ton of money that way!!!
That would be REALLY clever! Great Idea! I'll bring that up at the next meeting, it's brilliant!
That's clever. I could help people with their homework, i've offered to before and people seem to go for it.
1 student of my tech teachers' did that with typing and she made a lot of money cause she could type fast
no. she did other students hw. 4 them. when they had 2 have it typed they would go 2 her and she would type it up. she could type really fast. like 1000 words per 3 mins. and inreturn she would get money and stuff
