I want to open a kid fun and kid safe card/ comic & toy shop. school. I don't have very much start up funds, nor the greatest credit. There's a trade center (Gibraltar Trade Center) consit of several booths with small business, mine is a little card/toy shop wich is a busy place. I have probably only 400 sq ft. This place is always packed. I haveve acess to the show area, so I have a nice size area yu-gi-oh, Magic,& other tournaments. The problem is the trade center's only open 3 days a week and just raised their rent to $1200 a month. For about $800 more(everything included) I have found a building right next to a high school and elementry school, in a plaza perfect location! what I would offer incentives for kids to keep good grades by giving store credit for good grades. I think school is impportant. Do you think the school, or church would help raise funds to keep kids of the street? Even if they don't, what are some good fundraising ideas? More detail in my profile. Any ideas?

It never hurts to ask!!! Knock on businesses doors and ask them to support you and your scheme. But go prepared and have a polished sales patter. Good luck..;

A good chili feed or spaghetti dinner. If possible to have it before a concert or school play, so many people love not having to cook on nights like this. Our school did a dinner and show night, the kids actually served dinner, while everyone enjoyed a musical variety show, the tickets sold out and all of the food was donated by local grocers and restaurants.
