3. Cool is that your page?
Can anyone set up a page there to benefit a Dem organization?

I am thinking of the Texas Aggie Democrats, poor things. Right in the heart of freeperland and fighting like crazy. I wanted to find a way to raise some money to donate to them. Keep them strong and growing.

8. Yep
That one is mine but feel free to sign up through it and you can have one just like it for whatever group you want to target

There are a lot of cusomization options when you sign up and the money goes to congressional candidates which is one area we might have a shot at in Texas..

2. Prize fighting?
Maybe pipe-fitting? It is my understanding that there are several things one can do with time to earn money. Perhaps you may pursue one of those pursuits. There is even a name for that activity, but the name escapes me at this time.

6. oh jeez...
throw a house party.
conduct a cell phone drive (google it, you'll find all the info you need).
make something and sell it. bake sale. cookies. crafts.
garage sale.
get some people together, do a car wash.
book a movie screening (ask reprehensor how he did it.)

google "fundraising ideas" and you'll get a zillion.

7. Sor-ee.
Didn't know it was such a touchy thing. I was thinking not a bake sale, but was blanking out. Oh and the organization isn't local to me, it's about four hours south.

Thanks.

10. Wups, sorry!

Pesky lack of intonation in email again! It wasn't meant as an "oh, jeez, here we go again," but rather an "oh, jeez, there are a million good ideas floating around out there and not enough time to post 'em all!"

dind't mean to sound beset-upon or anything! Sorry! :7

so you're looking for something you can do yourself, not with help?

So he can defeat Krusty the Klown.

I just haven't seen an actual bakesale since I was a kid. You may not raise too much money, but it could be a fun and easy community thing to do.

Edited: D'oh! Just saw your other post asking for "not a bake sale." Oh well.
