Fund raising ideas for class trip to Spain?
Fund raising ideas for class trip to Spain?
My son's 8th grade Spanish class is planning a trip to Spain for next summer. Each student needs to come up with $3500! Unless we do some serious fund raising he won't be able to go. Our ideas so far include: Yard sale, Penny drive, car wash, selling stuff on eBay & bake sales. Does anyone have any great ideas? To Cherry Koolaid- It's not a vacation is a Study Program. There is no way I would let him go if it was just for fun.

The actual event, crazy as it may sound, involves racing rubber ducks down a local waterway. Your local community "adopts" the ducks for a chance to win valuable donated prizes. Duck races have become a unique and profitable event for many charities. Your group sells a ticket linked to a number that's painted on one of the racing rubber ducks. Depending on the prizes involved, tickets are priced somewhere between $5-$10 a ticket. A standard size for a race is 3,000 rubber ducks, but you can adjust that up or down depending on the size of your group and the amount you need to raise. Large plastic bags full of the ducks are simultaneously emptied into the water. The winning duck is the one that floats to the finish line first. It adds a little extra zing to the old-fashioned raffle ticket sale. Prizes can also be awarded in various categories to add to the festivities. Many groups organize their "race" around a group picnic near the waterway and make a leisurely afternoon out of your fundraiser event. A company called Great American Duck Races can supply you with everything you need. ~Bowling - Ideas on putting together a charity bowling fundraiser - How to tips for organizing a fun fundraising event and maximizing the revenue. ~Halloween Pumpkin Patch - Fundraising with a Halloween Pumpkin Patch - How to tips for a simple Halloween fundraiser idea. ~Karaoke Fundraiser - How to ride the American Idol craze with a karaoke fundraiser - No talent required and not a lot of effort needed to organize this fundraising event.
