Going to Costa Rica next summer.?

Question

Well I need to raise 2,500 dollars to pay for the complete trip. It's for school and I need some money-raising ideas. Any help?

Answer 1

Hola María,

Visiting some friends in Munich I saw a very interesting system in a group of young friends there.  they did a list of all that staff they used to buy almost everyday, so they did a list (cookies, beers, cigars, sodas, chocolats, etc... the whole list!).  then they made shooping as a "wholeseller" (as example, 50 packs of chocolats, 20 six-packs of pepsi, etc) and they reselled to themselves in other price, so if a pepsi costs $0,45 they reselled in $0,75... so they made an important amount of money... they had big TV, sterio, some coachs, ping pong table...

I hope this can help.... now, besides this tip i would like to ask you about your trip, because I'm Tour Operator here in Costa Rica and if your school accept it, I would like to offer my services... maybe I can help to make the trip cheaper!

Good luck with everything!

Answer 2

First of all, there's a lot of study abroad scholarships out there, especially in your own university.  If you can't get one, do a raffle among family and friends.  A lot of time they'll just donate money to help you out and it really does!

Answer 3

Host a pot luck dinner where everyone pays to come and eat.

Answer 4

your school could host a car wash, bake sales.. you could also ask local businesses to see if they would donate something that you guys can turn around and auction.

Answer 5
