In the end, we raised several thousand dollars, which is incredible considering that there were only 16 kids in my entire grade.

No but in college we did "Penny Wars" where you tried to get the most pennies in your bucket, but all other change/dollars counted against you... so you put those in the other people's buckets.
Usually a lot of fun, and the money went to charity. (Either a fraternity's philanthropy or another club's project.
