Here are a few I found at Fundraising Deals.com
http://www.fundraisingdeals.com/Fundraising-Ideas.aspx
Idea: Name Tag
Premise: A name tag (the plastic kind you slide a business card size piece of paper into with the pin on the back -you can buy them at any office supply store) and put a small picture of my son with a little line - Ask how you can support our team in this year.
Needed: Name tag
-----
Idea: Fundraiser Insurance Cards
Premise: Parents buy an insurance card stating that they are free from any fund-raisers for 6 months to a year!
Needed: Create a wallet size card which states that the parent is free from any fund-raiser for either six months or one year. Create a certificate of authenticity. Charge between $20 and $25 dollars, depending on the amount of time.
----
Idea: Hoop it up!
Premise: At half time during a basketball game, offer to let people shoot 3 baskets for $1. If a person gets 3 in a row, have a small prize for them to take home or offer an item free at the snack shack.
Needed: Basketball
----
Idea: How many in the jar
Premise: Let your imagination run wild with this great fundraising idea. This can be done at work or at school and perfect for around the holidays. For instance, in February place a jar filled with candy hearts! People pay a pre-determined amount to guess how many are in the jar! Keep the jar out for 1-2 weeks (you do not want to keep it out too long as people may get bored!), The person who is the closest, gets to take home whatever is in the jar!
Needed: A Jar, candy or other item to place in the jar.
----
Idea: Give and Take Fundraising Board
Premise: Our preschool is currently condicting a great fundraising project. We call it "GIVE & TAKE". On a big foam board located outside of the classroom families can post services they are willing to GIVE or services they want to TAKE. Each service has a pledged donation amount that will go to the preschool. When a family selects a service they remove the pledge card and present it to the author. Examples are: to GIVE - babysitting @ $5 an hour, a home cooked meal delivered to your home for $20, a day with the teacher for $30. To TAKE - furnature moving @ $75, Saturday babysitting for a $25 donation, "taxi service home" for two children @ $10 a week. And because these are donations to the school families can claim them on their taxes. The list continues to grow and is a perfect fundraiser for our cooperative preschool.

Have a yard sale and sell other things on the side. For instance, go to a store like Costco or Sams club and buy cases of bottled water, candy bars, snow cone supplies. While you are selling stuff at the yard sale, sell these items too. People will likely have kids with them that beg for parents to buy them a sno cone or candy bar.

This site has information on every possible fundraising idea:

They don't sell anything, but they really have great advice on how to make more money with any type of fundraising event, product sale, raffle, yard sale, car wash, donation request, or fundraiser.

do a carwash! if you do it right, it can easily make $600 and most gas stations will let you do it at their place even if its a few days before. maybe like $15 for water but thats it. andddd i would make it a "FREE CARWASH" with donations excepted haha. that way, you actually get more money and the people want to give it to you. i would also make lots of COLORFUL signs and bring a boom box, just to attract people. and location is important also. and you could also try to get one of those speaker phones to yell at people on the street to get a carwash. well good luck! :]

Hold a bake sale. Seriously. Those things pull in at least $200. Get your friends to help you, I'm sure they would find it fun to bake all day with each other, and, personally, I love being in charge of such a fun operation. It works!

You should do some type of game day for both adults and parents to do together and you can have them pay for each game. It doesn't have to be a lot. You can also sell cookies and lolli-pops to make a little extra money.

raffle - you get a few cheap things and put them together in a pack the sell tickets to win. also if you ring around and say you'll put them up as a sponsor some shops will give you things to put in it
