    Car washes bake sale community yard sales put cans in businesses that ppl can put money in . There are tons of ways you can do . Go to the children’s hospital take pictures of the children you will be helping then go home and make a little thank you cards and then go around your neighborhood and ask for money and those who donate give them a card for them to keep to remind them what a good deed they did . Another thing that would raise great money is setting up a dunking booth .

    Car washes. Paper drives, aluminum can recycle, Find a agency that wants a product introduced that has merit and will pay you to present it as a fund product.

    Hi there. Quite recently we came across a rather unique, fun and exciting fundraising idea. The business model has been around since 1999 but very few people are using it as a fund raiser. Cannot post any links here as it is a violation of Yahoo policy. If you reply I’ll discuss further. Denise

    Tag Sale.
    Get some friends to help donate items to the cause, Post a notice that all money raised is for charity (people may be less likely to try and ask to lower prices.. but do not be afraid to lower a price if it means you will loose the sale.)

    Have some younger children offer “lemonade” & small bags of chips and cookies…or have a cooler full of cold soda and bottle water… Donations only…
