Can anyone think of innovative ways to raise a lot of money for charity?

Question

i am taking part in a competition to raise as much money as i can for charity. Can anyone suggest ways to raise a lot of money by holding an event or something, because i have the time and stuff to plan and prepare but i am running out of ideas

Answer 1

sell tickets for a dollar, 50 cents a piece  or whatever price.

Get something that was  donated or bought  for a prize. sell lots of tickets and you will make money. good luck.

Have an auction or yard sale. Have a bake sale.

Answer 2

Have a huge garage sale, asking your friends, neighbors, community, schools, etc to "donate" items for the sale.  Then all the money you make is for charity.  You would be surprised how much money you can make!  I did this last year and I made over $6000.00 to give to charity!

Plus, you can have food at your garage sale, selling it all to go towards charity.  Chick-Fil-A donated sandwiches for me and I sold fifty, which added to the charity money.  Try it!

Best of luck to you!!

Answer 3

To auction goods at eBay.

Any kind of things.

Good luck.

Answer 4

Just sell your cookies door to door.

Answer 5

Be the 1st ,to give.

& set an example for others

Answer 6

Ask your local leadership organizations Lions, Rotary Etc and ask your local runners club to have you help sponsor a race depending on turnout you could raise a few thousand.

Answer 7

Set up a kissing booth. However, do not have Rosie ODonnell as one of your people in the booth. You will not only not make any money you might get sued.

Good luck

Answer 8

Get some of your friends together who aren't competing and plan a "parent's day out" some Saturday afternoon for about 4 hours.  See if your church will let you hold it there and have games and things planned (plus a snack).  Hand out flyers in the neighborhood and charge a flat fee of $5.00 per child.  Another thing you want to do is make sure there is at least one trusted adult there the whole time.  People love being able to take advantage of this sort of situation.
