| Any ideas for fundraising that you've done?
Let say you're in need of $2000+, what are some past experiences/ideas that worked for you?
I need things that actually WORK and practical, and not just out of the blue .. like "sell crack" or something. Clubbing is ideal but are there any others that work?
Serious responses only.
Thanks
Edit: Sorry forgot to mention, it's not personal. It's for an association and for a good cause.

I worked under the table for a local delivery service and made $2k in 3 months.
I whored myself out and made about $15 in the same time frame.
I "clubbed" and lost almost $30k in the same time.
clubbing seals as i assume you were talking about would make you quite a lot o money, but you chinese parents would be ashamed of you and well, you know how that story goes.
honestly, if you need that money fast, move to ft mcmurray for a month. work hard, have your $3k and the rest of the money you made will cover living expenses and flights.
simple. hard work with no life experience = good money.

in that case, say you have cancer. you'd be surprised how many family and friends will donate if they think you have cancer. I made over $6k last summer from that. I should have mentioned that.
also, mentioning the association might help you out

if you go to uni, hosting a bake sale bring in quite a bit of money. also i'm not sure about vancouver but in victoria you can contact clubs and get the covers from open - 11 donated to your cause. a friend of mine did that and made $1500 in one night. also you can presell tickets at school
