This summer I am going on a mission trip with my youth group to guatamala that will cost about $1200
I am also going on a people to people student ambassador trip to australia, which I’m thinking will end up costing me about $5000
And then during spring break, my french class is going to france and that will cost $1800-$2300
That’s about 9000 dollars I have to raise on my own! [well, I'm sure my parents will pitch in a little, but right now they are saying I have to do it all myself] and I need some GOOD ideas on how to make it.
I know that I can do things like bakesales, but I don’t know how to get started on anything.
Can you please explain how to get started and how much I will make with each fundraiser you include? Thank you!
Oh, and if I’m going to ask for donations from businesses, what kind of businesses would be best to ask, and how do I go about asking?
Thank you!!!
I’ve been in this situation, I actually went on a people to people trip to the UK a couple years ago and it was quite a challenge. Ask your friends’ parents, teachers, anyone who has a heart will help you out! Go to a Sam’s Club and buy bulks of candy, and sell them to kids at school, you’ll be surprised how fast people will buy. If the meetings for your people to people trip haven’t started yet, the parents talk about those things! Don’t fret, people will help! If you want to know some more about what to expect from the trip, email me!

What about a Coffee fundraiser?
Specialty coffee and beverages are an exploding market nationwide and people are going to buy it anyway. Java Joe’s Roasting Company is an upstate New York based coffee roaster, who specializes in fundraising. Organizations will realize a profit of $2.50 or more per bag sold. The products will be customized to promote your organization (free of charge) and there are no set up fees or minimums. This fundraising program is equitable and offers your supporters a first class practical product that is perfect for every day use. Good luck! I hope I was able to help.
p.s. My son’s preschool made $2,496 during a 2 week campaign.
