Re: Can anyone help me with Fundraising ideas?

what about an ebay drive-- where people bring in stuff and then all the proceeds go to them??

or-- since it's Spring-- people can sponsor you in a run, or a 10K walk or something.

We had a fund raiser and did a 50-50 raffle. It was a HUGE hit.

Do you run? You can enter a race and ask people to sponser you.

You could do a big garage sale - ask people to donate stuff and all the $$ you make goes to the family.

I did penny drives for a fundraiser in college. Ask everyone you know for all their pennies and tell them where the money is going. We actually raised a few hundred dollars this way b/c people don't mind giving a small amount.

The race idea sounds the easiest and quickest to pull off right now.

Those who did a chinese auction, where did you have it?

You can try to get a firehouse or knights of columbus to donate a night. Explain the situation to them. A murder mystery dinner is also a good way to raise money.
