My high school isnt exactly your typical city high school. Its kind of rural so we don't get many cars.. more like bikes...

Ooooh, a dance-a-thon: people pay a certain amount, like $1 or $5, per hour that the fund-raising kid dances.
The kids get a dance, and there could even be a prize for the kid who dances the longest, as an incentive.

My Elementary school did something wildly successful called a Run-a Thon (even though they dont have to run, and by the end of they day; they wont be).
All the kids get a sheet that they take home to relatives and friends (key is to leave it at home for a while so they can sign up alot of sponsors). They can get flat rates or per-lap donations.
You create a rather large circle for the kids to run and they get a stamp on a card (by teachers) every time they do a lap.
The per-lap sponsors motivates some kids to run as fast as they can. The kids walk in packs with their friends.... and its a great day off for them.
Offering freezies or gatorade to kids ( to keep them hydrated) also motivates them.
Finally, prizes of $100, $75 and $50 dollars to the top money raisers gets some kids to sign up astranged relatives !
Its always a success at my elementary school (as long as you dont do it when its really hot outside)
