a. Ask a couple of guyz to take Gold Credit cards . You can easily raise 40-50 thousand $ in cash . Even if you pay a 3% interest per month, if your business makes a 100% return in a year, then you would have still gained a 74% return. For such a return, you should have a solid business plan and quality people behind it.
b. You can also borrow money against your company as a collateral. If you show a decent cash-flow per month, then you can easily raise some good amount of cash. I hope these ideas are useful..!!

We've had many fundraisers for school over the years. There are so many you can choose from but here are some that i remember doing.
These are all selling: candy, flowers, candles, pizza, cake and cupcakes (bake sale), magazine subscriptions, (this is all I can think of for now)
There's also car washes and you can have sort of like a luncheon or dinner where you charge so much a ticket to get in (that is where you raise money) and the people eat, gather and listen to music from a DJ. You can also give out some cheap prizes to make it exciting.

Approach local businesses in the community for donations in exchange for advertising and publicity. If you are tax deductible, make sure you tell them and provide a receipt. If you are printing a program for the event, make sure to take business cards from donors so that you can copy them into the programs. Try to figure out a target of how much money you want and how many businesses you will need to solicit. Get them now for year-end budget surpluses.

How about selling gift certificates to a local store or restaurant? For instance, one of the area greenhouses has gift certificates that they will sell to the schools. The gift certificates are $5 or $10 each and a percentage of the sales are returned to the school.

candles, clubs choice or maybe cookiedo
you could have them pay $1.00 each to go on a treasure hunt and find a prize that they could keep. Or mabe you could have a craft day, where you buy kerigomi or origomi or pottery clay and it could cost $2.50 per person

Try to think of something that people would want--not like these stale candies and cookies, too expensive candles or dishes, etc. Please, no more popcorn!
For instance one fundraiser I heard of was tupperware. Women like that. You could sell hats or shirts with your school logo on them. Candy bars sell good.
