raffles, have a gun raffle if you live in the south, buy a good hunting or sporter rifle and raffle it off at 1 or 2 dollars a ticket. we raised over $3000 by raffling off a pump 30-06 with a scope. but doesnt have to be a gun, raffle off anything that is worth a couple hundred dollars and that you know alot of people want. full vehicle detail gift certificate, dvd player, anything that will attract attention will work great.

Perhaps you should stand in a window front nekkid with a sign saying accepting donations.  <wink>\n\nHave you asked everyone at work?  If not working have you asked all your friends and family?  Have you posted a website with what is going on and how they can help?  Maybe on your 360 page?  You could walk around your neighborhood and pass out flyer's with your contact information and the facts about the event.  I will go back and look at your link and think about it some and let you know.  Good luck

Have a garage sale.\n\nYou can sell there the following\n\n* all your un-used cloths & used cloths\n* handi crafts, cusion covers, serviettes, table cloths (start making them now)\n* flower pots, plants (if you have them in your garden)\n* Short-eats & soft drinks like faluda etc (ask your mama to \n  prepare some) \n* Gifts that you received earlier and not used for a long time\n\nI think you can earn some big money with the above. I hope it will work out and you will have a nice b'day party.\n\nIf you could not find money please do not be disheartened ok. Just celebrate your b'day peacefully at home with your family members. There are more time to come and when you do a job and have money, you can have a big party.\n\nSo don't worry. I had enough money but never had parties for my b'days as I used to share it with the needy.

"St. Patricks" on Franklin Ive donated stuff even a van once too them\nor any "Goodwill" (usually in the back of a store if not their own)\nI think my wife donates to the one on "hillsdale" By our house\nAlso you could post it in the free section of craigslist, and be specific of who you want to get it, this is more personal so it may be more rewarding felling. \ngood luck!

You don't say where you live or teach, but I would suggest calling a locally-owned store that sells those things and see if they would be willing to donate some or all of the items. You can try asking church groups and civic groups (Rotary, Knights of Columbus, etc.), who might be willing to help. See if the local paper would do a story on the project and what is needed (call the editor). There are a lot of generous people out there. They just need to know what you need and that you need it.\n\nGood luck!

Get everyone involved call your friends and neighbors to help with the benefit. Give everyone something to do. Set a date. Make poster. You need to call your local business and ask for donation and tell them what you are doing. Have your local news paper to advertise for free.  Have a raffle on something that one of the stores give you. If you can get a florist to donate a plant you could raffle it off.  Me and two of my friends had a befit for a small boy in our home town and raised over $3000.00 We used a vacated lot  and had a huge yard sale and had all kind of activities for kids and adults to do. We even had a local band to preform and Pepsi donate a drink machine. Ask the fire department and police to get involved. Ask them to let the kids look at the trucks and cars.We even got our med helicopter to land and it was a big hit. Have a bake sale. Have someone to sell hamburgers and hot dogs. Don't be afraid to ask for help. Tell the business's you will advertise their name on what ever they donated. And have fun. Good Luck

Why not get her involved in raising the money? Do a tag sale, bake sale, car wash, candy bar sale- whatever. Or hold an event like a dinner dance- you make the food and provide music and sell tix to family and friends. Teach her to get involved and make things happen, in addition to looking for outside help.

Congratulations on being accepted!!!! i've been on these trips before and let me tell you, the fundraising, is gonna be tough. \n\ni didn't raise ALL of the cost, but i did raise enough spending money for like souveniers and stuff like that.\nas far as fundraising, you can try having a garage sale, which is what i did. \nand you can also make flyers and hand them out around your neighborhood asking people to donate things they don't want anymore, this stuff will go towards your yard sale. \nyou'll be surprised at the stuff some people will donate to you. \nand also on the flyer put that if they need any dish washing done, or if they need help with cleaning their garage, or ask them if they need their leaves raked or baby sitting. things that THEY don't have time to do, but that you'll do for pay. you know? stuff like that.\nyou'll be surprised at the calls you'll get from people. \nthere ARE kind and generous people out there who will try and help you out.\ni've been doing this and i'm trying to raise money as well and so far it's been working for me. well, raising money for another trip outside of p2p. \nif you also go on the p2p website, there are also other fundraising ideas you can do. \nyou can also contact the program office by telephone, and the website has the number to the program office and you call, and they'll send you a handbook on fundraising ideas as well. \nthe booklet is supposed to be free once your a p2p member. \ni hope it all works out for you. good luck.

Allot of times, the congregation is suppose to help by chipping in more money, and possibly free labor on projects that they can do. If still not enough, you may have to have bazaars,garage sales, or events that could help to raise more money, like a big big "Revival"" that brings in more people and more money!! Good Luck! and God Bless!!

Have a yard sale. He can buy a new bed later. A couple of thick blankets can actually be quite comfortable. It woudln't be strange to have one in the middle of the week. Put up big, bright signs, and the people will come.

Call your local cable company. Some have a channel that advertises events in the area and they may let a non-profit or charity advertise for free. I volunteer with a non-profit organization and the local cable company let us have a space for free. Call your local radio stations and see if they will do a "spot" for you. Call the local T.V. news station and tell them about your event and what charity it is for and they may promote it for you during the news report. I hope this gives you some ideas.

you can have a raffle.. write a formal letter asking for donations for your club and make a few copies, take them around to local stores ask for merchandise or gift certificates, then raffle those items off for $1 a ticket... \n\nyou can host a dance.. ask your school or city or local boys & girls club to donate a gym or cafeteria so that your club can hold a dance.. you can charge $2.50 per person, also have mothers/fathers of club members make baked goods or snacks, sell them during the dance.. \n\nyou can also make baked goods or craft projects and sell them if front of your local supermarket(make sure to ask permission from the store first).. also think about selling them during up coming christmas craft shows and parades or special events.. a lot of events need vendors and some even offer a special non profit rate if not free rate for non profits.. \n\nin the spring/summer of course you can have the ever popular carwash.. it's also good to sell snacks etc, at carwashes also, at any fundraising event you do really, baked goods are cheap to make and they always sell, no one can resist a good chocolate chip cookie... \n\nwe had a fundraiser a few months ago where a few guys from our martial arts club volunteered to shave they're heads.. so we made boxes for them and who evers box had the most $$ at the end of the day had to get his head shaved in front of everyone right then and there.. it was a big hit, it cost nothing to set it up and we made a straight profit of $500 in one afternoon... \n\nalso, and many people forget this, always send thank you letters to those who donate things or significant amounts of money.. this lets people know that you appreciate their support and will make them more inclined to donate even more next time you ask... \n\njust be creative, sensire and enthusiastic and you'll find ways to make money.. \n\nhope this helps!\n\n~*good luck*~
