IDEAS ON HOW TO RAISE MONEY
TO HELP YOU GET TO CAMP
It's always nice to be able to help your parents any chance you get. Why not surprise them this year by contributing towards your camp expenses. If you are interested in making sure you make it to camp this year, below are a few fundraising ideas that might help. Give them a try!
Mowing Lawns
ask your parents if they could pay you to mow the lawn at home. But don't stop there. Ask your neighbors if they need their lawn mowed.
Car Washes
This fundraiser is easier if you have friends also interested in raising money for camp. Together you can spend several Sunday's hosting a car wash.
Bake Sales
It's hard to turn down cookies. Just ask the girl scouts! Bake cookies or banana bread and sell them to church members or your parents' co-workers.
Bike-a-thon
Dust off your old bike and put it to good use. Get a sign-up sheet & see if people are willing to sponsor you 50 cents or even a dollar per every mile your bike.
