Answer 2

ask everyone you know, and try to bring attention to yourself in some way, for the cause.  You could make a big sign, and stand on a street corner, that says, "I am walking for the cure, step up and participate" or something like that... bake sales, dances, craft faires, carnivals... there are many good fundraising ideas.

Answer 3

It's hard to face it but the people you need to see are the family's of the cancer victims. They have the most at stake.A few families on your side to help you out will make the work more easy to handle and fund raising for causes takes lots of emotion.

Be creative!

Answer 5

Here is an excellent national fundraising program. This company creates discount cards for 3-Day Breast Cancer Walk participants throughout the country. Go to http://www.saveandsupportdiscountcard.co... and view their sample cards and programs. They provide you with all the tools for a successful fundraiser. The nice thing about this program is they create ready to sell discount fundraising cards for as low as $1 each. You choose the selling price and can earn $19 each on a $20 card raising nearly $2000 with 100 cards sold. They also offer an optional internet page for free..... Good Luck
