My school’s orchestra is made up of about 25 people. We’re going to Prague this year for our big trip, but current estimates put us at needing $18000 in scholarship funds and other such needs. The problem is that our current “bank account” has a balance of about $100. That’s two zeros there.
So basically, we need money and it’s too late for grants, and we need awesome fundraisers to make up the difference.
Currently we have ideas like:
1. Silent auction of STUFF (signed basketballs, painted violins, etc)
2. Hiring out students to parties
3. Asking for donations
4. Washing windows in a fast-food drive-through
5. Selling cheesecakes (last year, the best seller got $36 profit)
6. Selling food after school for sports teams
So any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you!
