So.. I'm a club officer on my school's robotics team, and the thing is.. we need funds for building the robot as well as travel to/from and lodging at regionals (robotics competitions).

We came up with a few ideas while brainstorming today at a meeting:
- Food (Candy/drinks/etc.)
- Valentine's day flowers
- Corsages
- Livestrong-styled wristbands
- Scratch&pay sheets (kind of like the lottery, but it's.. the more you scratch off, the more you pay..)

Do any of you have suggestions on how to fundraise? Thanks!

Bumper stickers.
Candy is good. Walk around with boxes and a lot of people will buy them.
.. Sell tech stuff.

Sell Girl Scout cookies.

food is always good.

food &candy. definately.

Sell Gold C Books. They're coupon books, and a lot people buy them. Also, sell cookie dough. Cookie dough is always good

hire a neoprint booth....

Sell candy and cookies.
Car wash

edit. readred topic. just kidding. haha


anyway. to late for this but we had boo grams =] and it was for halloween and you payed 50 cents and a bag of candy was sent to that person in their homeroom =/

Food works as a fundraiser.
Remember, we're the fattest country in the world.

ooomg.
when our poms team sold suckers..holy crap..
people bought em like hotcakes. (that expression really doesn't make any sense..)

suckers! =)

<3 robotics team. =)

GIFT WRAPPING!

My school newspaper is doing that, and since i"m in it, we're going to do that for the week before Christmas. ut it really depends though. Last year, they only made I think.. 400 dollars? It just really depends though. Girl Scout cookies are good though But you can't do them unless you're in girl scouts O_o

cookies, hotdogs, food etc. maybe even a "silent auction" as my old school called it, where u make a bunch of creative stuffs or (buy em urself, ionno) and have like an auction out of it.....u could also try like a themed store, like ppl at school would make "valentine stores" and stuff like that 2 raise money

Tell the world.


Earn millions.


Tada.


And you have money for yourself to keep as well.

Bump

Kinda interested in new thoughts.

I, on the other hand, am just interested in seeing if Azarel's robot was ever modified into a robot of the evil variety.

I'm not really big fan of the livestrong-styled bracelets. Food and candy is always good though, and hold out of school functions. eg. fundraising kegger or bubble tea night.

Hmm...you can probably find someone who does a tattoo that comes off with alcohal(sp?).

My teacher was doing those at a football game and since she didnt want so many request, she just say whoever wants to have a SE tattoo. SE is our school btw.

Ok, this always seems to work well at my school.. but here's what we do. We pick a restaurant like Panera Bread, and the members of the club will volunteer to work there for about an hour doing things like cleaning up tables, passing out food, etc., and 10% of the proceeds earned that night will go towards the club/organization. The band usually does this at my school and we raise a pretty good amount of money.

Sorry to say - no. I've since quit the team, also, since I did not get along with a majority of the newer members.

Well, if you ever want to assemble a team to build killer robots, you know where to find me.

Energy Drinks!
