We did a road block at 1 intersection got 650.00 in 4hours,

Walmart and Food City (outside with a bucket) - about 1400.00 in 8 hours

Yep car washes and doughnut sales are the way to go. As a matter of fact our travel baseball team is having a car wash this Sunday afternoon at the Autozone exit 7 in Bristol. So if your over this way come give us some money!

donut sales?

how does that work??

ive heard of alot of different fundraisers but never heard of anybody selling donuts

You set up through Krispe Kreme. The doughnuts cost $2.50 a dozen and you sell them for $5. $2.50 profit on every box. Get in the right spot in the morning, easy money! Just make sure you don't over order and get stuck with a bunch. You can also pre-sell and take orders and pick up the exact amount you want, and then deliver them.

As a person that's hit up for fundraiser events by nieces and nephews and such, I have to say the fundraiser I truly dislike the most is the roadblock/begging fundraiser.

I never carry cash on me, but I'm treated like I'm the devil in disguise because I walk or drive by without throwing in $5 or $6. It's also very awkward for the folks with very limited funds who are hit up for cash coming and going. I've seen unsupervised youngsters harrass and heckle folks that didn't drop $ in the bucket.

Carwashes, food sales, tangible things are preferable (folks who dont want to actually buy stuff can still just give $ if they so desire).

On a side note I saw some enterprising young teenagers at C'burg walmart one time send out the innocent looking younger brother to ask individuals in the parking lot "you got a dollar I can have?" - they probably made a killing. But I didn't give.

i had no idea.....the only issue with that is......it must be tough to make money is you arent in a very heavily trafficed area, no?

i would imagine that ball fields and the like are probably good spots.......but isnt that an otherwise tough sale
