Are you thinking of having one in relation with another event the school is having? This would be a ideal, if they are having any carnivals, or festivals, check with the hosts of these events to see if you could do something there most are willing to help out with a booth space and you draw more people that way, bake sales always are a hit at these things. You might want to consider a 50/50 maybe a Teacher or staff would help you there, set up a time period make up tickets, and sell for 1 dollar, or 6 for 5 dollars, at the drawing your group keeps half and the winner takes half, This takes nothing to start. I hope this helps good luck

A casino night for parents is always great fun. Set up the hall as a casino - with money printed with your school logo. Use BIG denominations - people can buy school dollars at (say) €1 US = $1,000 School.
At the end of the night, auction off your prizes. People that have won money can bid for them. It's also good fun not to tell them what the prizes are, so that when they win them it's a great surprise. This way, you keep the fun - one person could bid $1,000,000 for a small prize, but someone else may get a great prize for $50,000.

we've continually completed particularly properly with cookie dough. the only downfall is getting the object out and storing it by using fact it must be chilled. We additionally do a sprint Ceasar's pizza equipment sell. they have completed properly for us. we actual did those two times final twelve months by using fact it substitute right into a success the 1st pass around. you're able to do a bake sale at Wal-mart and that they're going to adventure whether a lot you're making. (in case you earn $2 hundred, they provides you with $2 hundred so which you finally end up with $4 hundred. i'm unsure in the event that they only try this for colleges or no longer. You did no longer point out whether this substitute right into a college choir or church choir, and so on.) you will desire to order a gap with them various weeks in strengthen however. Have a plate lunch sale and furnish to companies. some sturdy sellers that are low-fee and hassle-free to make are spaghetti or jambayla. sell for $5.00/plate and furnish to companies in the event that they have better than 4 orders. the downfall to the plate sale is that it takes an outstanding variety of folk to pull it off. It relies upon on how many volunteers you could desire to get. Do a vehicle wash for donations. You generally get extra in donations than in case you ask for a set quantity. those are the failings that have long previous properly for us contained in the previous. sturdy success! i'm constructive you could attain your purpose!

If okayed with the school, you can write small grant proposals to local banks, target, walmart, etc... The applications are on their websites, usually under community involvement. They usually award 500 bucks each.
