I am looking at going on a Girl Scout trip and need to raise about $4000 fast. What are some real big money making ideas?

I don't know if you would like the idea but I sponser fundraisers for many different organizations. I would be happy to specialize a fundraiser for you as well. What I do and have found it to be very successful is Mary Kay Satin Hands Set. The organization receives $11.35 of every item sold. To break it down if there are 100 kids selling the item and each one sells ONLY 2 the profit for the organization would be $2,270! Two sets per person is a very achievable goal as there is mom and grandma that usually buy at least one. Plus with the time of the year this set makes an excellent gift for Christmas. Mary Kay is a very well known product and it really sells itself. If you would like me to get you going with this exciting fundraiser let me know. You can contact me at shawndalyn_clark@yahoo.com.

Tupperware does fundraisers.... It's a company that people know and will buy. Especially because the holidays are coming up.
Organization earns 40% of the sales.
It's easy to do and also can set up an on-line venue for out of town buyers.
They are very successful. For any questions. e-mail marilyn@mrvander.net
P.S. Both of daughters are in Girl Scouts too. I know how hard it is to get alot of funds in a short amount of time and this really is a great way to do it!
Good Luck!

i'm assuming the 4000 USD are for all the girl scouts not just u. So they should help out. Like u could go door to door and sell cookies or raffle tickets(of prizes u get for free from the local shops-parents will help u there).
Or u could have like a fair with games and food and stuff that all girls and their parents help out in and u could charge an entry fee.

Go for anathashram collection & give 60% of collection to anathashram and keep 40% as reward of your hard work and go to scout trip.

Raffles are always good. You can also sell products such as World's Finest chocolate or candles through Home Interior. Or you can do odd jobs, mowing lawns, walking dogs, etc.

4,000 dollars for girl scouts isn't that outrageous. But a garage sale would be great and sell hotdogs and foods also.
