I want to raise money by sending the message to my school about an event. For instance someone at my school had bands come in for free and the public had to pay a certain amount of money and that money went to support breast canccer. I want to do that but I don't want to have bands come in and I've tried googling in event fundraising but I couldn't really find any ideas. Theres carwash and stuff but I want something so the public would be entertained and interested to come. I was thinking maybe a dance and the crowd would pay 10 dollars and that money would go towards preventing HIV/AIDS. But I don't think a dance would be that great and I wouldn't know where to hold it because I can't at my house and I think it would turn out to be a disaster. What are some ideas.
Additional info, added Thursday April 5 2007, 2:52 am: Well I'm not thrilled about planning this dance, that's why I wanted other peoples ideas of any other events :).

If you have a job then great, save up and get the money that was saved up and rent a place for an evening or afternoon. Then with the money left over, but decorations and speakers and dont music, along with a bouncer to make sure no one gets in with out paying.

Contact your City Hall to see about how to do that. You can ask them for security measures if you think it may get out of hand. I'm sure they will be willing to help you out since it is in support of an excellent cause. [ Brandi_S's advice column | Ask Brandi_S A Question ]

Kind of like a dance off seen in the video Dark Blue by Jack's Mannequin. But, bands playing is a good idea too. Not as original since somebody else did it, but I doubt the bands would have a problem playing for such a good cause. =) [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]
