car wash Answer: $1.00 Chances on $100.00 Gas Card. My League did this for 2 weeks and made over $2500.00. We challenged each of our 15 teams to sell a minimum of 50 tickets. The team that sold the most tickets won a swimming/Pizza party, the team that sold the least had garbage duty for a week at the Baseball fields. I know that the garbage duty thing sounds extreme but it was all done with good humor and intentions and all coaches happily agreed before we began the fundraiser. Think about it, 12 players per team and 3 coaches, that's fifteen total. If each player and coach sales only 10 a piece that is $150.00 per team. The great thing about this fundraiser is there is no upfront expense we simply purchased the gas card the same day we did the drawing, plus it puts the work of the fundraiser in every participants hands not only the few that do most everything.

First of all, congrats on getting your fundraising started! Raising support for a worthy cause can be super rewarding. But obviously, if you're not an official non-profit, it can be really tricky finding a good way to build support for your cause.

One route you might want to consider: setting up a homepage for your group on a fundraising website. Having a group homepage online makes organizing and fundraising infinitely easier ... And though the majority of fundraising sites require you have official non-profit status, many good ones only require that you are a group - and will give you plenty of the tools you need.

For example, one good site is Meet Up (www.meetup.com), who allow you to fundraise directly to your account, and register a group without having an official non-profit status - and they cover groups around the world, while giving you some tools to do event management. But the tools they offer are a little limited outside of fundraising.

Another good option would be Empowered.org (www.empowered.org), a platform that also helps small groups fundraise and organize (regardless of non-profit status). They also work for international groups - and offer a fair amount of useful tools, like the ability to organize your group or to create volunteer activities and fundraising campaigns for more targeted ways to raise support.

Or you could always try to send up your own PayPal account to link to you directly to help you fundraise, but this is a little trickier and a bit inflexible.

Good luck getting started moving forward! Hope that helped.
