My sorority does a few things to raise money for both or philanthropy and our own chapter. For our philanthropy, we do Buy-A-WOO and Turtle Tug. For Buy-A-Woo, we auction off sisters to the highest bidder to cook, do laundry etc. for one hour. I go to a relatively small school and we raised around 800 dollars in about 2 hours. Turtle Tug is a campus wide event we hold each year in our mud volleyball pits, except we fill them with green jello. It's your standard tug-o-war contest with teams signing up with an entry fee.
Our biggest fundraiser for our chapter is working at Cedar Point, which you have probably heard of. If not, its a large amusement park in northern ohio. Anyways, we raise about 2000-4000 dollars each time we do it. This idea would work for almost any chapter who lives within a few hours of an amusement park of some sort. Towards the end of the summer, and into the fall, the amusement parks loses all of their summer help because they go back to school, so they hire area groups to work a weekend or two. In our case, each sister is paid minimum wage for the hours they work, but it is all pooled together and given straight to our chapter.
hope this helps
