  1. i think a good way to start and a good way to get attention is by helping an organization within your community/city

    Go here to determine if the charity is a scam:

    Remember it doesn't have to be extravagant! I once participated in a charity fashion show. I was the makeup artist for all the models. We chose young, highschool aged kids. The people who designed the clothing were also that age. The goal was to create outfits out of recyclable products. It was great! The outfits were amazing and the makeup and hair was crazy.

    The best thing to do is just start asking around. You may have more connections than you think. Someone who does hair, makeup, food etc..

    Here are some tips

    You can make it work....good luck


  2. check out Charity Navigator.  You can search many different charities and see how effectively they use the funds they raise.  They are all legitimate, and you can search by cause (environment, literacy, etc).

    Contact the charity and let them know you'd like to organize a fundraising event.  They can give you lots of help and advice, and give you the right to use their name and logo.
