Fundraising


Question Posted Saturday June 6 2009, 8:11 am

My friend and I are both 13, soon to be 14, going into 8th grade. The summer of eighth or ninth grade we want to go on a trip with Travel for Teens. The trip is 4,000 though, so we need to figure out a way to make money. We were thinking we might be able to have a fundraiser because the trip includes building playgrounds and helping the people of poor villages in south africa. any ideas?

That is very kind of you to go out to a foreign country to help others. You guys could start out something small such as carwashes and baking sales, however you are not going to get $4,000 just by selling cookies. The easiest way I find whenever I do fundraisers is by going to a big neighborhood (usually townhouses), and knock on each door and ask them to donate at least $2. I did this couple years ago and nearly got $500 a day. You could also ask people to donate things that they don't use or need anymore and sell them.

I hope you guys will both collect enough money! (:
