Does anyone have any fundraising ideas that one person can do?
i want to go to South America with my youth group and I have to come up with 1,500 dollars. my church will be doing some fundraisers but i am supposed to come up with most of the money. Im 16 and dont make very much money, does anyone have any ideas what kind of fundraising besides bakes sales/garage sales i can do to get the money? My church doesnt have any scholarships available.
Tons of ideas!
Bob a job,
(or five dollar jobs around the neighbourhood)
Guess how many jelly beans in a jar,
(to win the jar)
Treasure hunt.
(hide something of value around the area and give clue
sheets to people)
Meat tray raffle
(ask your local butcher to help)
Organise a fun run
(Ask people to donate per kilometre)'
'Where theres a will theres a way'! Hope these help!

I've seen people make embroidered items specific to the local area. Hats, sweatshirts, bags, etc. Maybe with the highschool logo, or grade school mascot, etc. I haven't researched machines yet, but may in the future as my wife is interested. I've seen Husqvarna (http://www.husqvarnaviking.com/us/428.ht... I've also seen people dress up stock teddy bears with local school clothing which seem to sell.
Oddly enough, I've seen people make buttons like this -> http://www.politicalshop.com/sku/FRONTRU...
With it being political season and all, you could make pinback buttons of each candidate (even magnets and mirrors) and sell them. You can put anything on a button, and they sell like hotcakes at boosters and fundraisers.
My wife has a 2 1/4" machine and loves it, but haven't really sold them anywhere, but know many many people do. It was mainly for our kids, friends and family. You can buy the machine and supplies here -> http://stores.ebay.com/Button-Safari
You could make antenna balls with your local schools mascot. You could also make custom lawn ornaments, signs about your dog, your kids, etc. I saw about a dozen signs on my bike ride this weekend that said "2 spoiled dogs live here" with different numbers depending on the # of dogs in the house.
Well, those are just a few more ideas for you
Good luck!

Hi there! I work with a company that has several easy to use, low cost or even no cost fundraiser programs. Do you have 20 or so friends and family members who might be excited to help you with your project? Maybe even a campus or church newspaper you could post a web address in? Would they like a great deal on Netflix, Vista Print, As Seen On TV, or even a golf swing training system? I can help you make a web page (in about 15 minutes) that has excellent offers from all of these companies and more. Best of all, it doesn't cost anything for you to set up or use! Every time a friend or family member uses one of these offers (like Netflix for $14.99), you will earn between $3 and $25 dollars, depending on the offer. Email me back and I can get you started.

Another idea for simple to manage fundraising, also consider Fundraising Discount Cards.
In a nutshell, you buy plastic credit card type cards, which could have your chosen fundraiser logo on the front & approx 12 to 20 local merchants offering discounts on the back, you sell these at a profit (obviously), but also the person buying the card actually has more than the value of the card in discounts – win/win.
Eg: you buy card for $2, sell card for $10, & person buying has in excess of $10 worth of discounts.
Some of the better companies offer to get the merchants for you & some don’t even ask for payment until 2 weeks later, effectively paying for the cards out of the profit you’ve already made!
My name is Tricia and I represent credit strategies, we help individual non-profit groups and organizations raise monies. I have a system that requires no investment ever, no collecting, no selling, no delivering. If you would like more information please email me, we would like to try and help your youth group out. The minimum amount you could earn is $1,000 and it grows easily from there.
