What are some unique fund-raising ideas for a high school organization?
We need to raise a couple thousand dollars this year and I need some ideas on what we can do to fundriase? We cannot sell any type of food or candy. Ideas for outside of the school fundraising and inside the school fundraising are all good..thanks
My niece’s class had to raise money for an overseas trip. They sold coffee beans (okay because they were roasted and prebagged); chocolates (before Christmas) and the biggest money-maker was selling movie tickets. This was in Canada: tickets to go to the movies cost $12.50 each, the school pre-sold 2000 tickets (and collected the money in advance, families bought a number of tickets for their kids but also as gifts for the paper boy, the babysitter, etc – these were sold in October and tickets came in November – preChristmas). The tickets (in bulk cost $9.00 each – the class made $7000)! They raised more than enough money and gave the rest to a charity.
Good luck.

I know of a great site that you can make extra money on by doing simple surveys and offers all 100% free ! (you can make and easy 80-200) a month or more depends all on you ! I have gotten checks from them so i know for fact they are legit. http://freeadverts4u.forumwise.com/freeadverts4u-thread9143.html

My daughters school used to sell carnations with little love notes (hearts) for $2.00 before school near Valentines Day and then they would be delivered to the receipent during lunch time.

This would work mainly for outside of school, among parents of the students. You will probably need an adult (age 18 or older) to assist with initial set-up of the fund-raising system.
The idea is to promote online shopping to the parents. They would not have to purchase anything other than what they would use anyway, and a portion of every purchase would go to your organization.
There are a few different companies that offer this kind of fund-raising. One that I am familiar with can be found through http://www.YourOrgMall.org
Good luck with your fund-raising efforts!
