We have almost all older people (over 50) at our church. Our youth club has about 10 people in it. the church is small and our youth group is trying to raise money for our own youth room. We have already had dinners, raffles, plays, car washes and bake sales. Any other ideas for a fun fundraiser?

Are there any suggestions for methods to raise money to purchase care packages to send to soldiers in Iraq for my Eagle Scout Project?
So far I’ve come up with a 50-50 raffle (where half of your money goes to the cause and half goes to the pot for the raffle).
Selling popcorn at the local park where they sell movies.
Car washes.
Painting curbs.

Any other ideas?

Every year at the state fair Paul entered the lottery for the brand new truck and lost. This year, he told his friend David, he wasn’t going to bother and enter.
“What kind of attitude is that?” David asked. He leaned closer and whispered, “What you need, pal, is faith. Look around and see if the good Lord sends you a message.”
Strolling around the fair, Paul grew more and more despondent as the drawing neared. Nothing struck him, no divine inspiration, no sign from God.
Finally, while he was passing old Mrs. Kelleher’s pie stand, he glanced over and saw the woman bending down. She wasn’t wearing any panties, and suddenly her a*s began to glow. Suddenly a finger of flame came from the skies and without her even knowing it, used her a*s as a table. The fiery finger etched a seven on each cheek.
Thanking God, Paul rushed to the raffle booth and played the number 77.
A few minutes later, the drawing was held. And once again, Paul lost. The winning number was 707.

Friend wants to raffle his SuV to min of 100 raffle worth $100 each. Any ideas how to do this quick?
