  Yes, I do. I would like to help you create on-going funding for your organization. People shop on-line everyday, right? What I would like to share is an on-line shopping rebate system that is harnessing the power of on-line spending. The people individually in your church would benefit and so would your church. I really believe you will find this system easy to do and would have no out-of-pocket costs to your church.

  About 40 years ago, my father along with 5 other men of the church decided to have a chicken bbq. They were able to convince a local grocer that donating 400 bone in chicken breast would be a wonderful donation to the church and a great tax write off.

  My dad being a butcher in his younger days, split the breasts(I helped and learned alot that day), marinated them in a family super secret recipe(Seven Seas italian dressing).

  My mom and few of the women bought the ingrediants for potato salad, and one of the church memebers donated a few buschels of fresh sweet corn. Well things got going.

  The guys built a big bbq out of metal roofing sheets and a rebar grate was found. A bunch of charcole appeared.

  A call to local radio station and newspaer along with word of mouth in our small town greated quite a buzz. Nothing like this had ever happend before in our little corner of world in the middle '60's.

  Paper plates, napkins, and plastic forks were found somehow and everything was ready.

  That day over 1000 people showed up to pay $3.00 for a paper plate of bbq chicken breast, potao salad,and a 1/2 ear of corn.

  Well when they guys saw that they were running out of food that saturday afternoon, my dad and I went to the 3 different stores and bought all the chicken breasts we could find. Plus we got more ingrediants for potato salad and a few more bushels of corn appeared.

  Luckily we found enough that day.

  40 years later, one of my boyhood friends is now running the annual chicken bbq in that same small town. It is selling close to 5000 plates each year at $6.00 each.

  He tells me that it is there biggest fund raiser and people love working on it because it has turned into a huge community event.

  I remember it was hard work, but a lot of fun and the money we raised that year was used to help alot of people in the area.

  Hope that this helps.

  Typically I'd say a bake sale, or jumble sale, or maybe a quiz day or something slightly more unusual to attract a different crowd – depends on the cause.
