How to raise money for One or Care?

Question

I want to raise money for either One or Care, both organizations dedicated to eliminating AIDS and poverty in Africa. Anyone have fundraising ideas that a group of teenagers could do?

Answer 1

schools all have fund raisers. you might contact the PTA to see who they contact.

many local buisness such as pizza hut also have fund raising programs.

try contacting just the orginizations themselves to see what they offer

Answer 2

I've done some community service in my day, esp. in middle/high school.  Bake sales are very effective if you can notify your whole school about it (if you have a good sized school you can get hundreds).  Also, a garage sale or something similar can raise money and help you rid yourself of those old objects you don't need anymore.  The key to a successful fund raiser is getting the word out so people know its going on.  Everyone wants to help these causes, so if they know about it they will come.
