Some Ideas

*Dance-a-Thon
*Singing Telegrams
*Garage/Rummage Sale
*Host a Bingo Night/Card/Board Game Party
*Baked Goods Sale
*Jail-A-Thon
*Sell Candy Grams for Valentine's Day
*Hold a Used Book Sale
*Host a Board Game-a-Thon
*Sell Coffee and Bagels on/near Campus
*Sell Balloon-o-Grams
*Hold a Raffle for Donated Prizes
*Host a Casino Night

Some of these events can be done in partnership with a non-profit. The March of Dimes website has a lot of ideas as well. Hope this helps.

We did a camp-a-thon. Another chapter did a rock-a-thon, and yet another chapter did a swing-a-thon.

You could also see if there are any PartyLite, PamperedChef, Mary Kay, etc. consultants in the area who would be willing to help you with a fundraiser.

Completely free fundraiser, where you get all the $$...vacuum-a-thon. Dorms have vacuums, you borrow them. Go around to rooms, and offer to vacuum for $1. We made more than $1000 doing it, and it was all for our philanthropy with no overhead.
