Can I get the money to go to Germany for a year?
I  was recently rejected from the Congress Bundestag Youth Exchange  program. I don't have any idea why, but the past is the past. Right now  AFS is offering me partial aid so I would only have to pay 6,000 dollars  for a year abroad. The problem is that I'm a graduating senior and have  already been accepted into college and have about 10 days left to sign  the enrollment slip and make a deposit. Is there any sure-fire way I  could earn 6,000 over the summer (scholarships, fundraising ideas, etc)?  because if I went I would need to save the little money I do have for  my first year of college.

Hey  Sean  It seems like you have some opportunities coming your way if you hussle.  Let me recommend an item that has worked for other people in your  sitaution.   Look into scratch cards from professional fundraising companies. They  come in different varieties, it just depends on what you can get excited  about. They're an easy sell because people want to save money on items  they're going to buy anyway. For the price of a couple dollar donation  to you they get a coupon. Each card can raise over $100 so the money  will come in if you put in the effort. If you can get family and friends  to help you that $6,000 is doable!  In the meantime do things like put on a BBQ at a local mall in the  summer, dog walking etc.  More fundraising ideas at the links I've found.  Good luck with whatever you choose.
