well back in the day i used to play baseball. and for a fund raiser we would sell like candy. itd be a big box and you would take it wherever and sell things like hershey bars , resse's , snickers and so forth. and its pretty easy to sell that kind of stuff , because its usually all a dollar a piece so its affordable and a lot people buy that stuff up.
but then again , idk how much of a hassell it would be because we would have to order a whole bunch of boxes and stuff like that. just a suggestion |

Maybe use the skill for money? We can think of a way to get paying gigs, or fund raisers using music.
Car wash worked really well, but heres a small spin. Have it at the school, and have some pep band players play songs to the people who donate. |

i think using the fact that we are entertainers like john said would be a good idea we could raise money without putting any money out so it is a win win situation

I agree to use the talent of the bands to fundraise. At my daughter's previous school the band auctioned off a band performance. The jazz band would give an hour performance anywhere within the city limits at the winner's choice of location. There is no cash outlay, well minimal for the raffle tickets, and the winner was able to invite friends and family for the special concert. I was a friend of a winner one year and the private concert was wonderful!
