You guys take things the WRONG way on these forums...

What I meant was that fundraising wouldn't exist if people didn't need an extra way to make money right? WHY ARE OTHER PEOPLE FUNDRAISING? I wasn't trying to say that we use fundraising money for our future house. Our dues actually go into that somewhat.

We use fundraising money to buy supplies to help people and do other activities that benefit our community. We don't just go around banking people's money. In the past, we have fundraised to buy material to make a quilt for our local woman's shelter. We've raised over $700 for Relay For Life in one semester!

Don't try to make others seem like the bad guy.

And I have done "digging". Searched the whole fundraising forum, but a lot of things are not applicable on everyone's campus. We can't have bake sales (competition for our food court). It's not warm enough out yet to have car washes. We can't hold Bingo Nights on campus because we can't make a profit on school grounds. Hard to find places that will let you raise money around my city without it costing a fortune to rent out. I was just looking for extra ideas that would help our cause.

Well sounds like you are completely out of options. I mean, what kinds of community service can you do without spending hundreds of dollars, right?!

You have made your sorority look like a complete joke on a website visited by many, many people. I suggest you stop posting, leave gc and go read a book because I feel sorry for your brain.

If the triple-digits don't generate enough money in terms of fundraising, your only real sources for the type of things you need money for are basically alumni.

The money doesn't just come magically out of nowhere.
