I need some good ideas for raising money for sports, volleyball.?

Question

I really need some good ideas for raising money and a lot of it, around 400 dollars is how much i need to raise. also i need to raise this money fast like before the first of January.

Answer 1

The raffle idea is good, but be careful of cash prizes.  That tends to get attention as gambling and is illegal in many states.  The raffle is probably illegal too, but they do not get attention when there is a prize given.  

A tournament is also a good idea.  If you can get the gym to donate the gym or greatly reduce their costs, you can make some money running a tournament.  

You could also raffle off spots on a team.  You draw 6 winners and they get to play against your team.  The caution here is that they players may not have the athletic ability to stay on their own side of the centerline.

Answer 2

ESPN Magazine has a great fundraising program with selling magazine subscriptions.  The subscriptions are $20 each and you keep $12 off each one. If you think you can sell 34 subscriptions this might be worth it for you.

Answer 3

You could do a trivia night.

-send out invitations

-people get their tables together

-pay like 20$ at the door

-give them questions

-1st place gets about 200$ to split

-2nd place gets 50$ to split

-you keep the rest of the money
