You have Christmas in front of you.... so focus on arts and crafts with that theme. Google arts and crafts projects that involve Christmas (making ornaments, etc.) and then sell them on Ebay or at a yard sale. If the school allows then organize a spaghetti feed, a raffle (where you can raffle off your Christmas art projects) and of course the all time winner: the bake sale. P.S. It is spelled Choir.....

Hey Kara I hear what your trying to do. The only thing is that $6,000 is a fair bit of change and I think you'll have to broaden out what your doing in order to raise that money. Crafts are good but with the time invested in order to make an item plus what it sells for will mean a LOT of time to raise the money. I encourage you to look at different ideas in the meantime. Look at raising money with scratch cards (each one raises over $100 and can be done quickly) cookie dough, trail mix etc. There are a bunch of items you can sell at a flea market with your craft stuff or at a BBQ at a local mall. You can do differnt things like dog walking tutoring, in your free time. Check out the links i found for more ideas. Good Luck
