Some new ideas that will take some work but are unique and fun.
1. Become a "mystery shopper"and donate your earnings to the team. Could work as a family fundraiser. One of the largest companies is Maritz Research. www.vitualcustomers.com, 1-800-782-4299. Once you are in their database, they will list opportunities on their site by proximity to zip code. They are looking for your opinions. Not big bucks, but flexible and sometimes fun. There are lots of other companies that do this. You need to do some research.
2. I'm just organizing the first of what I hope to be many, team and school "taste testings." Large company wants consumer opinions. This time it is chips ( when I lived in England, they were called "crisps" ). Takes 5 minutes/person. Look around at any food corporations in your area and approach them. Permissions are usually needed for those under 18, so need to have adult as well as student involvement.
Good luck!
