    Other than local radio and your local newspaper to do a story on her and ask for donations at a bank there..you can set out cans or jars in local business's that people can put their change into. Have her classmates or church friends do a recycle can collection around town with the proceeds for her. There are always people willing to help once they hear her story so my best advice would be to publicly ask via radio or newspaper with her parents consent of course...ask them also...they may have ideas on fundraisers too. Neighborhood kids can start a "donate your spare change" collection or even a contest to see who can bring in the most pennies. Announce over the radio where the drop off places are and the D. J. can announce it throughout the day...maybe a dog or car wash /bake sale going on the same time also.Maybe a "mini"carnival in a parking lot somewhere that a buisness would donate the space and prizes to the kids. You could fill it with lots of games and have a church or school "man" the booths. Sell sodas, hot dogs, cotton candy, baked goods, sno-cones,etc to raise even more funds. Good luck and I think you are awesome to want to see this happen for her.

    i hate human beings like that. She is being egocentric and doubtless doesnt are responsive to it. confer together with her approximately it. permit her understand the way you experience. in keeping with possibility she'll substitute, in keeping with possibility not. If she's nevertheless gonna act the comparable then forget approximately approximately it. forget approximately approximately her. it is not well worth having a chum until they act like a chum!
