What are some good fundraisers for raising money for camp?
Our girl’s youth group is raising money so that we can all go to girl’s camp, or at least pay less than we usually have to.
What are some really cool creative ideas to raise as much money as possible?
We can’t have an auction be our main source of money because our Bishop doesn’t want all of the church members to have to basically pay for the camp every year, especially if they don’t have a daughter even going to camp.
So, anything to appeal to the public?
We’ve tried garage sale,
But not everybody participated, and yeah.
So; Ideas?
Hi Lynne,
First off, here are a few sites you might want to check out for fundraising.
http://www.fundraising.com/
http://www.fundraisingweb.org/
http://www.youthpastor.com/Resource/index.cfm/Youth_Ministry_Fundraising.htm
http://www.churchbizonline.com/youth_fundraising.htm
Suggestions I would make are:
1. A Bake Sale – After (or before) church sell baked goods to the congregation. You can also sell some good coffee. If you don’t want to bake see if the local donut shop will give you a deal on donuts to sell.
2. Chores – Offer to do chores for members of the church. Car washing, yard work, etc. could bring in some good money.
3. Dinner and a Show – Put together a show with all the girls doing 8-10 skits (kind of like Saturday Night Live) while parents and friends eat a dinner you all made. Spaghetti is easy to make a lot of.
4. Restaurants – Some restaurants like Round Table Pizza and Carl’s Jr. have a fundraising program where you invite everyone you know to eat dinner there one night (basically having a big party) and your group gets a portion of the money.
5. Parent’s Night Out – At your church or someone’s home provide an evening where parents of the church can drop off their kids. While you and the other girls babysit the kids the parents can have a nice evening out.
6. Door to Door Car Wash – Find a safe neighborhood and go door to door asking residents if they would like a car wash. Make sure you have a hose, soap, rags, etc. Either have a parent drive the stuff around in their car or keep it all in a cart that you can pul from house to house.
7. If all else fails kidnap the Bishop and hold him for ransom. As long as it’s all in good fun.
Good luck!

You can earn extra money online by participating in GPT sites (Get Paid To). One site that I personally use and love is free to join, unlike most 'money making sites' out there.
Basically what you do is fill out free surveys and offers, and they pay you to do this. They pay around $.25-5.00+ depending on whichever one you do. You can do as many as you like and there are hundreds to choose and do from. There are other ways to earn money on the site, such as referring friends, or participating in their rewards program and earning points to get prizes.
I personally make around $150-200ish extra a month, that's on the low side and I don't do it everyday…there are stay at home moms though and other people with a lot of time on their hands that does make over $1000 a month. If you'd like to see proof of payment and read more about the site that I use you can visit my website.

You could do a bake sale
My church use to do a BBQ (Sat. night service) and they would sell hotdogs and hamburgers
You could set up a donation box near the exits so when people leave, they might tip a few dollars
