Raising money by having a lemonade stand...sound weird?

Question

With permission from who's in charge I'd like to have a lemonade stand at a playground/park for the DAV (disabled American verterans) sometime next week. Does having a lemonade stand for something like that sound weird? I thought it would be a apropriate since tomorrows independance day(US).

I'd set up by the road for cars to come in...what should the signs say? How much should I charge per cup since it's for charity? I'm also selling pops...I bought a pack of 100 pops for $4...how much should I charge for that? Should I advertise the stand by passing out fliers the day before? Please help me ^_^

The best answers contain lots of help 0=)

Please and thank you.

Answer 1

to get a permit for a fundraiser you will need written permission from the DAV.  Even if you are raising funds for charity people will not overpay for anything.  So keep the prices reasonable.

Answer 2

I think that&#039;s a great idea! Not weird at all! Fliers are a good idea if you have some extra time. They could say basically what you just said in your first paragraph (that it&#039;s to help the disable American veterans on our Independence Day). Make them nice and patriotic with red white and blue. You could make the stand the same way and maybe with a flag. The sign should say &quot;Lemonade for Charity&quot; or &quot;Lemonade 50 cents.&quot; Price the pops at 25 cents each. Be sure to tell each customer what the money will be going to.
