water conservation kenya
high school fundraising ideas?
i am in a high school group of 8 freshmen and sophomores working on a group promoting water conservation. In this group we are also looking to help the thirsty. we are buying special filtering water bottles and shipping them to kenya africa do they’d have clean disease and bacteria free water ! Unfortunately, we have no money and the bottles and shipping is extremely expensive so we need major fundraiser ideas.
I am the fundraising director and I need help.
NO car washes
NO dog washes
because were promoting water conservation
Any ideas ?
raffles & bake sales & garage sales aren’t very popular in our area.
So . . . any cheap ideas. I say cheap because we have almost no money now as we are a new group.
Thank you all ideas are helpful ! ! !
p.s – i go to a small private school (7 – 12) consisting of 290 people just incase that helps
I was in the Environmental Action club last year, and we made rain barrels and sold them for 50 dollars each. It turned out to be a huge success. We had the old barrels donated to us, and it worked out really well. We all got together, made them, then sold them, and got a good profit. We’re going to use this profit to put solar panels on our high school.
