Think about your resources...Fomer school teachers, former coworkers, friends, extended family... Start with people you know closely and work your way out to people who are more aquaintences than friends. <-- for Donations\n\nOtherwise, you could try calling a local pizza place or mcdonalds to see if they will give a % of profit from a certain time period to the cause.  You could also have a silent auction wtih donations, (they can range from gift certificates to baked goods once a month for the summer, or 3 hours of house cleaning... be creative!)

tell people your problems and ask them to donate to the cause on the net........set up a pay pal account and run with it.

Yes we do.  My mother and her two sister have a team called the Three Sisters.  We so far have had a mystery dinner.  And next month we are having a golf tourney and possibly this summer a concert to raise money for relay for life.  I am an 8 year survivor.  My one aunt just lost her husband to brain cancer and my other aunt has a daughter now battling cancer.  God bless people like you.  As for my favorite part it is meeting people who have gone through the same thing that I have.  And if anyone want to participate just visit the American cancer society for details in your area.  Just remember all the money raised will one day help eradicate this terrible disease.

I have been a NASCAR fan for a long time- almost ten years- and i can tell you that there is only one constant: variety.\ngenerally, the cost will be around $10 million for a marginally competitive team(to be competitive right off the back you basically need a bottomless wallet, say $50 million), but when you factor in things like salaries (fabricators make more than almost any other engineers on earth), travel, licensing/registration, and the like, you're looking at almost $50 million per year for even the smallest competitive teams.  however, there are some people who build them literally in their back yards.\nNOTE: if your project is on the cost, you HAVE to mention sponsorships, which can easily total the above amounts.  however, most companies are not going to sponsor a low-budget low-performance team right off the bat.\nTO PUT THIS SIMPLY, your class must have made your teacher mad, as this is a project that needs A LOT of research, beyond anything you'll find on this site.

I would decided first of all which charity you're going to support with your efforts. Next, become familiar with that organization, its mission statement and the clients it serves. Volunteer there. Seriously. If you're going to raise money and ask for donations, you need to be behind your cause 150%. Otherwise people will just see right through you. \n\nTo set the walk up, I'd talk to the director of the agency, or possibly even the board of directors (if it's a local charity!). Then, pick a date and and find a location that will support you. Next, start looking for businesses to donate prizes to you. Don't forget about refreshments (food & beverages). After all, if you're charging admission, you want to make sure that they have something to get into! \n\nMake sure that if you're working with a 501(c)(3) that you're working within their tax-exempt guidelines. \n\nTalk to radio stations & TV stations to help publicize & cover the event for you...\n\nGood luck!

http://www.FundraisingDeals.com/Fundraising-Ideas.aspx\nHas a good amount of free fundraising ideas\n\nI also found this site http://www.carwashguys.com/fundraisers/ch1.html#FINDING%20VOLUNTEERS if your brother just wants to do a carwash.\n\nBelow is just a sample of what you will find on the site\n\nPICKING DATES AND TIMES \nRAIN DATES \nFINDING VOLUNTEERS  \nWASH-A-THONS \nORGANIZING \nAGENDAS FOR MEETINGS \nHOURS OF FUNDRAISER \nWHAT’S IN THE WATER? \nCAR WASH PRODUCTS \nWATER CONSERVATION \nPARENT’S HELP \nTEAMS \nDIVIDE AND CONQUER \nOVERLAP PROBLEMS \nOTHER LOCATIONS \nSET UP \nLAYOUT \nSUPPLIES \nSUPERVISION \nORGANIZING WASHERS \nSIGNAGE \nPUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM \nDONATION CANS \nHOT DOGS \nBAKE SALE \nPANCAKE BREAKFAST \nTRAFFIC FLOWS \nFLYERS \nCASH \nMEDIA \nCOUNTING CARS \nVACUUMING \nLAYOUT \n\nYour layout is ultra important and inevitably determines how many cars you can wash. If you’ve done your marketing correctly, have a good location and sold tickets/pledges, you will have unlimited cars to wash. Now you must wash them efficiently. Remember, the more cars you wash, the more money you will make for your group. Your layout will change from location to location.\n\nSUPPLIES \nThere are certain supplies you will need such as:\n\nSoap \nSponges (2) \nTowels \nBuckets (3) \nGarden Hoses \nWindow Cleaner \nClothesline \nCoffee Can Collection Box \nClip Boards (2) \nWhistle with Strings (2) \nStop Watch \nSqueegees (3) \nChamois (2) \nYour soap buckets should be five gallon buckets. You don’t have to buy them. Go to the local McDonald’s and ask the manager for a pickle bucket. They are green but who cares. They are free. McDonald’s will also give you a giant water dispenser full of fruit punch to borrow for the day of the event if you want. Tell the management in advance that you will need these items. Also ask them for coupons to hand out at your fundraiser. It will help their business and you should return the favor.\n\n\nhttp://www.carwashguys.com/fundraisers/ch5.html

Have you approached the charter school about having a fundraiser for the kids who could not afford the field trip like your child? There is probably at least one other child facing the same problem. Also, have you approached the school about the problem because they might have some ideas for fundraising. Here are some fundraising ideas:\n\n* Bake sale.\n* Approach local businesses for donations if the school helps some with a letter.\n* Car wash in the spring.\n* Candle sale.\n* Avon.\n\nGood luck!

Sometimes peoples willingness to help might surprise you, specially around the christmas season, but you gotta realize also that people are very untrusting nowadays, I would say to raffle rather cheap items and state that the proceeds will go to this family in need. Try to contact the media, or your local radio stations, they migth be willing to help. Hope i was of some help, Really wish you the best, i hope you do get to help out this family

If they really needed it then why not.\nGet  people to sponsor you to do something (football match , run, silence, reading marathon). Garage sale.

Woo-hoo! Go for it! I'd love to see you win it, then the rest of us could sue. It would send a strong message to the masses for sure.

Surf the net with the word "fundraising ideas." There are some pre-designed ideas and schemes that you might use, depending upon your situation. You can also buy required stuff such as bands, stickers, and stuff you can sell to raise money. \n\nBut first determine your budget and then decide your apporach so that time is not wasted. Try out-of-the-box ideas like using social networks like Orkut. Create a community there, and rally people to join it. This way you can advertise your message free to a great number of people. \n\nWrite to organizations and philanthropists who may fund such cases. Depending upon her ailment, you can find specific organizations that fund the cure of that disease.\n\nTry what they did in The Apprentice: approach people who are willing to donate something for an auction. \n\nBuild a team of friends who will be staunch supporters and will reach out the maximum number of sources. Give your campaign a theme: put a smiling young picture of the lady on the posters/ badges, etc... and appeal to other mothers by using a specific slogan such as: HELP SAVE JOHN'S MOTHER.\n\nAs for a tiny idea: If you're in college, you can arrange a day of games. WE used to hold "slave auctions" in which we sold the college's most eligible guy as a date to someone for a specified time. He was bid upon. Usually, he was bought by the other (straight) guys. :)\n\nGood luck, and the best of wishes for your friend's mother. May she recover.

start a web site to take donations, or "cash advances", try putting it on my space, the word will spread quickly since it's for a good cause. contact your local radio channels, for nonprofit causes most will run adds free, or at least a discount. encourage your community to get involved. maybe visit some larger businesses in your area, and encourage them to sponsor or contribute to the cause. Promise free advertising, and new loyal costumers, that should help. Good Luck, and I hope everything works out.

Get some friends together and organise fundraising events...run, hair shaving, sitting in a bath of cold beans...etc etc.  Advertise your efforts in the local newspaper and on local radio to get more support.

Not a question, but I'll write it for you.\n\n"Dear whoever. I am proposing a search of sponsors for an event. -Thanks, dudes!"\n\nIt's good. Use it. Just be short and vague.

Some things I've done with my school are like hosting a Battle of the Bands or hosting your own personal car show. Advertise your cause alot, it's a lot easier for people to pay for something that's for a good cause. Another good idea might be to do crafty things, like make bracelets and beaded keychains? Tye-Dye is always attractive, pretty easy to do, Wal-mart has cheap dye that's FUN. Lol, that's all I got, good luck with your fundraiser.
