Fundraising Ideas!!!?

I'm in a club called AMSA: American Medical Student Association.

We just started the chapter at my University like last year...so we're 'new' and well...POOR!

There are a lot of events that we need money to help fund...so please...any creative, fun, fresh, catchy fundraising ideas would be most helpful.

Please, not a bake sale...it's like there is a bake sale EVERY DAY on campus.

    how about a bachelors and bachelorettes auction? My college did one and it was a blast! also at Borders they let non-profit groups wrap gifts for a day and you get to keep all the tips - and Hagen's (and other stores) let you Carol (sing) during the holiday for a set amount, $100 or something. Another idea is to put prizes on paper inside balloons and sell them for $5 a pop. Have tiny prizes in most and a couple of good ones that people will go for - talk to business's and ask for donations: free diners, bowling, gift cards etc. They are pretty good about it and in return you list all the places that donated.

    What about a Coffee fundraiser?

    Specialty coffee and beverages are an exploding market nationwide and it practically sells itself. Java Joe's Roasting Company is an upstate New York based coffee roaster, who specializes in fundraising. Organizations will realize a profit of $2.50 or more per bag sold. The products will be customized to promote your organization (free of charge) and there are no set up fees or minimums. This fundraising program is equitable and offers your supporters a first class practical product that is perfect for every day use. There are no out-of-pocket expenses to your organization because you will be collecting payment for each order before you place it with the company, therefore, you are immediately in possession of your profit. You can even change the name of the product & have fun with it! Good luck! I hope I was able to help.

    p.s. My son's preschool made $2,496 during a 2 week campaign.

    I suggest you to try project payday, simply because you don't need any money up front and you can start making money within minutes. I average around 2,500 dollars every month with it. Check it out at http://riskfreedeal.com/payday.htm
