Our two main fundraisers are garage sales and a spaghetti dinner.

We typically bring in between $500 and $1000 per garage sale. We do several each year, generally one in the fall, one in early january (usually the day of kickoff) and one after florida. We ask for donations from team member's, their friends, family, as well as the school in general.

Our other big fundraiser is a Spaghetti Dinner. We do this in the fall and mainly advertise to the school. A lot of the food is donated from local businesses, so our cash outlay is minimal. Along with the dinner, we raffle off a DirectTV system. One of the parents on the team works for DirectTV and is able to get a system a year to donate to a NPO. Between the raffle and the dinner, we get between $1500 and $2000
