Well so far I've saved $400.00 but I need $1,375.00
I need this money probably a week before June 3rd.
It's not like I can get a job at this age I'm just a freshman in highschool and there's no way my parents would just lend me this money. Any ideas?
By the way...this is for a seccion for a summer camp....
and to those wise @$$es....stripping and being a hooker is out of the question.

Speak to your parents. They should be quite excited about you showing some initiative to work for what you want. They can probably help you come up with something to do for money. Lawn work, and babysitting come to mind. And maybe they'll even chip in to help you out a bit.

Try asking your church also why don't you make up a flier or resuma about yourself. The same as you did for here. Tell them you need the money for camp and describe what type of jobs you are willing to do. Dog walking, Pet feeding while they are out of twon, Baby sitting, errands, shoping for them such as grocery, cutting grass.
Make a deal with your parents show them what you are doing to earn the money. See if they would advance you some money if you are not quite there with the promice of paying them back after you return from camp and complete your jobs.
Be sure your parents know where you might be getting a job. There are a lot of creeps out there who would do anything. Don't trust strangers.
good luck

I'm offended that you think that stripping and being a hooker is out of the question. You should immediately apologize to those nice people that are just trying to make an almost-honest living. LOL.
Now, how badly do you need to go to camp versus saving for college, which would serve you much better in the future?

Put $100,000 into a money market should do it.
There is now real way to do this without you getting a part time job. At least with only $400 to start with - if you try to parlay that money to 1375 in 3 months would be taking too much risk.

Why can't you get a job? I had a formal job when I was a freshman in high school. If you can't get a formal job then look to offer your time and services to your friends and neighbors by baby sitting, raking leaves, or whatever. Incidently, yard work pays very well. I use to make several hundred a week at 16 years old mowing lawns

Do your parents or other relatives have stuff they would let you sell on eBay to raise the money. They might be willing to give you the stuff or they might be willing to split 50/50 on it.
It also might help you if you mention in your auctions what you raising money for.

Sell stuff on eBay. or coach a little league team in May. Ask about it at your local YMCA. Or start selling Avon. Do stuff for people in the community.

any part time job would accure that amount.
