How do I raise funds for a club at my high school?

Question

I want to raise funds for a club called Educate Asia in my high school. Its goal is to help educate young kids in Asia who otherwise would have no chance of getting an education. Every little bit of money helps since money is worth more in Asia. The kids in my high school are wealthy enough - the problem is getting them to part with their money. How should I go about doing this? Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

Everyone loves a party - see if you can get a band to donate their services.  Then get the proper permissions and "police or security",  if people see it as a worthy cause you should be able to get it all donated for 100% profit.  If you are not good at sales - enlist a friend who is.  It is all about how you present your idea!

Answer 2

Have a car wash, a 50-50 drawing you sale tickets for a 1.00 then draw a ticket the winner gets half and the club the other half, silent auction get local business to donate items to auction off.
