Try selling some of your old items on ebay and using the money to pay for the dog.

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

Fund raising can be a very stressful and time consuming task, but I stumbled across this e-book online not too long ago to help me find some ideas for fundraising for a community development project, check out the site for the e-book by clicking the link I put down below.\n\nhttp://bigmacfann.uwematt.hop.clickbank.net

There's no way that we could possibly put all of this in a Yahoo! answers space.  But there are plenty of sources out there that can help you.  The first link below will take you to a company that you can talk to about starting your own pet store.  The second is a link from Entrepreneur Magazine which talks about the different kinds of pet services that people are spending money on right now.  Hope that's a good starting point for you.  Good luck!

You can't. You will be always have those who truly need the money and those who do not. Some will be more sympathetic than others. It's a crapshoot. If you are generous by nature, let that comfort you. If you are not, simply do not give money except to charities, who may or may not pass it along to those who need it, like the fakers.

Join a club or a class that teaches what you're interested in. There will be other people there that have the same hobbies as you, and they will be easier to become friends with. \nOr - get a dog. You can meet so many people in dog parks, and you just start talking to them automatically and immedietly become friends.

Babysitting \nThe American Red Cross, and some local colleges offer a babysitting course for kids to help train them to be a good babysitter. Babysitting is an excellent way for kids to earn extra spending money. \n\nDog walking \nThere are usually many dogs in any given neighborhood. Often times, their owners are not able to take them for a walk every day. This is an excellent opportunity for a child to earn some extra spending money. By offering to walk a neighbor’s dog, you can get exercise yourself and earn some money at the same time. You could even team up with a friend and walk several dogs at once. \n\nYard work \nMost adults can perform yard work but some are not able to because of physical difficulties, or because their schedules may not allow for time to do it. Pulling weeds, or mowing grass is a good way to earn some extra cash. \n\nCar wash \nMost people like to have a clean car, but do not necessarily like to wash it themselves! This is a good opportunity to make money. Make sure to get some pointers on car washing from your parents before you start. Pairing up with a friend and working as a team might be a good approach as well. \n\nGood luck!

Maybe you can do it the old fasioned way:  go door to door, and ask people to give you money.\n\nIf that doesn't work, write letters to rich multi-millionaire Democrats like John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, Barbara Boxer, Chuck Schumer, Michael Moore, and Hillary Clinton.  They're always telling us the poor deserve more, well, here's their chance to step up and lead by example.

Volunteer at something local. It doesn't pay but you get lots of experience, make some friends, get something to put in your resume (something that shows what you've done in school/life), and you are giving back to the community. Perhaps a food pantry or something similar. \n\nOn the lines of dog-walking, you could dog-sit. If the neighbors are going out of town and they usually leave their dogs inside or outside, offer to let them out three or four times a day, or let them out in the morning and in at night. And you can feed them, make sure they have water. Also, if neighbors going out of town and have a garden, offer to water their flowers/fruits/vegetable plants if it doesn't rain so they don't die.

Some of my friends are top fund raisers for a local charity event similar to the walk that you are doing.  Here are some ideas that seem to work for them:\n-Raffles - One guy holds a raffle at work for $200 Best Buy gift certificate for 1st place, a $100 g.c. for 2nd place and a couple of 3rd and 4th place items like ball caps.  Another friend raffles off 1 day of labor.  \n-Sending letters - One guy swears by sending letters.  He makes it a point to send at least 100 letters.  He finds many people are willing to give to a good cause and there's the occasional person that plunks down a big chunk of change.  Keep your donors informed with a pre and post newsletter about the event, why you are doing it, etc.\n-Host a smaller walk.  A group of us organize a smaller event and we typically raise $4k-$5k collectively. \n-Make coin cans and ask some of your favorite businesses to put it by their cash registers to allow people to drop some spare change in.\n-Ask people to donate garage sale items and have a garage sale with all of the proceeds going to your event.  Get a guy out there at the garage sale to grill some hot dogs and brats (tip: make sure to through copious onions on the grill - the smell attracts people like flies) and sell brats and sodas. \n\nI hope these ideas help.  Good luck!

One of the best ways I've found to raise money is to give a "Free" car wash. You don't charge anyone to wash their car but you do accept donations. These work wonderfully at Wal-Mart. Usually, Wal-Mart will donate the water and the hoses. You will have to supply the workers. Place people at the doors advertising the car wash making sure to state that it is Free but that you do accept donations.\n\nMy church raised several thousand like that for our youth group to go out of state to a youth rally.

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.

You can look up fundraising on the net and find lots of companies that are willing to help you sell their stuff. Also, many direct sales companies, like Avon, have a fundraising catalog you can sell from, giving you a portion of the sales. Of course, there's always the time honored ones like bake sales, brat & hot dog sales, car washes, garage sales, auctions, golf events, walks & rides (for miles traveled), raffles and other such activities. You can put cans out at several businesses, with your particular event listed on the side. Hold a spaghetti, chili, chicken, steak, soup, salad, or other such dinner. I belong to Habitat For Humanity and I'm on the fundraising committee. We're looking for new ideas, because we've done all the above ideas. They're good, but we're always looking for something unique, that will get people's attention. We do something called Shanty Town, where everyone goes around getting pledges to sleep in a cardboard box overnight. They create whatever kind of box they want, decorating it and coming up with themes or whatever. We've turned it into a real festival, with rides and games, music & food. This was our third year and we raised over $12,000...and in a rural community too!. Being creative is important, because there are hundreds of other organizations trying to do the same thing. Hope it all works out for you. <*)))><
