    Hi,

    Besides the usual bake sale, car wash or raffle sale - you
    should consider selling a "money calendar". You can set up a
    calender on your PC, offer prizes for each day, specific days
    or just on the weekends...whatever works for you. We solicited
    donations from local businesses but have done the same thing
    with baked goods, craft items, car wash performed by band
    members delivered to or performed at the home of winner.... We
    have had very good luck with this type of fund raiser. Be sure
    to include a tear away section on the calendar for ID info. to
    be retained by the seller. Also, if there is a Krispy Kreme in
    your area check out their fundraising opportunities - they are
    very well run, profitable and oh so tasty...
    Good Luck,
    Margaret in Mass.
