"Sometimes it falls upon a generation to be great. You can be that great generation."

There is no fundraising template.

It is our belief that our youth have incredible potential to do great things. We encourage students to work together to create their vision of a fundraiser. Our thought is that in one group of students, there are so many talents: artists, marketing, business, networking, and so many more to use that they have the capacity to do something incredible.

Here are some incredible ideas students have organized already...

  • Carwash
  • Concert (DECA pulled one off at the Colorado Governors Mansion!!!)
  • Battle of the Bands
  • Dash for Cash (students running through classrooms having 1 minute to raise as much as they can!!!)
  • Give up soda for a day
  • Dessert and coffee for parents with a silent auction with some creative items...
    • Babysitting
    • Lawnmowing
    • Snowblowing
  • Selling the HOPE Heart Beads to replace corsages at Homecoming
  • AND SO MANY IDEAS WE HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN YET!
