Answer 1

This isn't exactly an answer, but Im working on doing the same thing at the moment. I really need some help too.

It turns out its alot more complicated than it seems.

It helps me because I do have a job and not much need to keep the money for myself. I mean honestly? Do I REALLY need to buy all my clothes at a&f, or can i spend the money on helping people instead.

You will need money to start out with.

But first, you need to choose a cause. Make sure its one you're dedicated about.

Then find a way to make the money you will need.

Then find a way to get that money to helping the cause.

You will probobly have to file as a nonprofit organization, and there is a decent amount of paperwork involved.

You will need to write a mission statement, and create a budget.

I found the info on how to file on google. Basically you just have to fill out a bunch of forms, possibly talk to a lawyer just to make sure you dont s***w anything up.

Answer 2

You can do a magazine fundraiser with my company, what that is, is that you have my company’s catalog, and sell the stuff in it to people, in return you make a profit of 35-45% .  Also I understand you may not have  money,  our company pays for all of the  materials,  the books, and shipping of the materials too you, so try it out; you have nothing to lose. Well just email me: [e-mail] or you can email me with yahoo.
