Did you know driving safely and sensibly can help the environment? You can put a twist on the old car wash fundraiser that educates and informs people about the benefits of being responsible vehicle owners and drivers!

A car wash is a tried and true method of raising money. You can spice up a regular car wash with a few extras, however, and let people know how they can drive green! All it takes is talking a local rental shop into donating the use of an air compressor, and the auto store into donating a box of tire air pressure gauges.

The next time you need to raise money for a good cause, think about making it a green cause as well!  People love to help out when there is a chance to have a positive effect on the planet. With that in mind, what about raffle where the prize is a bundle of eco friendly products!

You can usually hit up manufacturers of green products for freebies, so stocking one or more huge baskets of green fun shouldn’t be hard. Hit up your local businesses to help sell raffle tickets for you, as well as spreading the word through the community via church or school.

A time honored sports fundraiser is selling stuff at sporting events. Snacks, drinks, trinkets and water bottles are frequent choices. For the younger set, however, there is a huge need for first aid supplies!

Kids are getting into sports at preschool ages now, and accidents happen. Scrapes, bruises, cuts and jammed fingers or toes are common. Often there isn’t ready access to supplies to take care of the kids!
