This is what our school does:



*sell flowers / candy (lollipops)

*wash cars

*throw a dance

*sell soda/candy at a sporting event



Thats the main things that happen at my school...We usually make around $100-$200 for each one...But i go to a small school, so i say larger ones would make a bigger profit! :)

Also, we do shoot-a-thons at my school...they make lots of money! Each student gets 35% of the money they raise to go into their fund...but it could all go into your fund since it is a big whole thing...does that make sence?

at my school, we have a big auction like thing, parents and familys donate baskets with a bunch of stuff in it, like gift cards, wine, cloth, cds, anything that might be fun and useful. and at school kids make things, like frames, those lap desk things with pads on the bottom and we put pictures on the top and put a glaze over it, and make a bunch of stuff and then hold an auction for the school parents to come to and buy things from other parents, and things that students made.
feel the chemicals going to your head

even if its from something light

get that high sensation all over again

go on, go after it again

dont do to much crap though

dont need a bad trip now do we



if the ocean was weed and I was a duck, id swim to the bottom and smoke my way up, but the ocean aint weed nor am I a duck, so pass the bong and shut the fuck up

uruj,

My school district is over 3 million dollars in debt, so we have lots of experience in this kind of thing ;)



We:

- sell "candy grams"

- sell valentines (delivered to people in the classrooms)

- sell flowers

- sell cookies everyday after school

- and more



But mostly my school just increases the amount of food they have to sell us. My school has like a whole restaurant...like there's anything in the world you could want to eat. It's cool, but too tempting. They must make a crapload of cash from it.
Whatever our failings may be, we need not lower our eyes in the presence of Jesus...Jesus comes not for the super-spiritual but for the wobbly and the weak-kneed who know they don't have it all together, and who are not too proud to accept the handout of amazing grace. As we glance up, we are astonished to find the eyes of Jesus open with wonder, deep with understanding, and gentle with compassion.
