I don't think you'll find much help here, see the responses already, I wish you luck.  I would try to raise the money locally if you can.

put on a benefit concert. a lot of times places like the local elks club, or lions club (or whatever there is in your town) will donate the hall for the night. go to the music store in your town (guitars and stuff, not cd's) and ask about bands. most local bands will be happy to do it, just to get the exposure. when you have 4 or 5 bands you can sell tickets. charge $5 a ticket or something. then, have a donation table and a raffle/food/drink/games at the gig. things like that can raise a few thousand a night.

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

If you are looking to find funding for NA activities ask EVERY business in your community! It is surprising how many people want to help but don't know how. Also, check with your local Chamber of Commerce.

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.

Offer something for free or run some sort of contest.  It will get picked up on contest/free stuff websites and will drive alot of traffic your way.  Doesn't have to be expensive..a 20 dollar amazon GC would do just fine.\n\nGood Luck!!

looks awesome! I don't know what to tell you though, I'm not so good at getting my bills paid if I'm sending donations to places... Pray about it!

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!!

I don't have a really help ful answer for you, but I'm working as a fundraiser for different charities. So, your problem touched me instantly. I would suggest you to approach any major sponsors you may know -could be company or organisation /like, amnesty international or something like that.\nIf there are other schools with similar problems, why don't you coordinate altogether any fundraising events? Students can create things that can be sold..!\nAnother idea is to find a block on the net and through that you can make the general public aware-create a 'donate' link so someone can offer money....!\nWhen there's strong will and love for something, then changes can be achieved. I apologise for not being really help ful, but I all my positive energy and thought may be with you.\nFundraising is not easy but is all about good energy...good luck.

Check with your local rental stores.  They may have something suitable available.  Explain your fund raising event, and offer them advertising over the weekend.  You may get a reduced price for the rental, maybe even a freebie!
