What are good ways for personal fund raising?

What are some good, easy ways to fund raise a lot of money?

• I want to fund raise money for a school in Africa, thousands if possible. What are some good ways of fund raising that I can do at school?

• Answer:

  well first you'd need approval to do that from your state governor's office. Then I suggest you get with your parents and figure this out. For one thing you probably can't do this alone. You may have to sell a product and someone has to buy it and since you're a minor your parents would have to foot the bill initially till you canr epay them. And someone has to do the bookkeeping and properly according to the IRS standards. Even if you just telemarket or stand in front of stores (you'd need thier approval first) you'd need your state governor's approval. In those cases it would take the generosity of people and not the item you are selling that will bring in the money so you'd need good contacts (probably your parents contacts) to bring in the money. When people do these things they usually make a trip (like in this case to Africa) see the people there, take pictures with them, bring back the pictures and information about who they are and why they need money. Traveling right now is scary.
