Fund-raising

Fundraising Parents and Students: I need your commitments. I am asking every parent to volunteer to organize 1 fundraiser between now and March 1. Please let me know what you are willing to organize for us so we can get dates on the calendar. I certainly understand other time commitments, so we can also team up to help each parent and student with their fundraiser. "//Many hands make light work.//"

Here are some ideas for fundraising:
 * Gather donations of household items and clothing and hold a community garage sale
 * Contact local businesses to establish gift wrapping for upcoming holidays: Mother's Day, Father's Day, Christmas, Chanukah, etc. (Target, Wal-mart, Bed, Bath & Beyond, Lowe's)
 * Have a crepe stand during community events or before/after school, during lunch
 * Host a "restaurant night" at a local eating establishment
 * Offer property clean-up/planting services to local property management companies
 * Host a French language camp to elementary students
 * Car wash
 * Movie Night--sell tickets either at SMS or in partnership with Skyline or Speakeasy
 * Bastille Day (July 14th) Event

I look forward to hearing your ideas as we begin this process! You can post them in comments.
