Buy pretty treat boxes at a craft store.  Make up variety boxes, a few of each type for sale.  If you have the space where you decide to market your product, you may want to consider boxing individually.  That way each person would be able to customize the variety they would like.  Sell the fantasy fudge boxes at any local event!

Straight from their website - “The Fledgling Initiative aims to make awesome wine for the benefit of Room to Read, a non-profit organization extending literacy and educational opportunities to children worldwide. Every case sold will provide approximately 60 local language children’s books and promote education in the world’s poorest regions.”

• Ask a few friends over for coffee and to help your group
• Have each person bring a few old cards that they have saved, or any scrapbooking supplies they would like to contribute
• Make tags for gift boxes or bags.  Box or bag them for sale in sets.  Make sure the packaging is pretty, and consider selling 10 tags for 4.99, or whatever price you feel comfortable with, depending on the quality of finished product.
• Distribute and sell at group events

• Enlist the help of local business owners.  Ask them to offer a product, service, or percentage off.  Make sure to stress to them that this could really up their business flow.
• Decide on a price for the services offered, and how many you will offer for sale
• Have a local printer print up the desired number
• Advertise and make sure to ask group members to sell the books to friends and family

You should try to choose a restaurant that is locally centralized so that you can get a large turnout. Advertise locally what your group will be doing and when. Work with the restaurant owner to create a special menu for the evening that is themed to your charity or group.

You might be able to get the restaurant to donate $1 for every meal ordered from the special menu.

Remember to be polite, fast, and accurate.

Just in case you need a cake walk refresher course, the object is to have your number called and be a lucky winner.  This can be accomplished in many ways, but I think the easiest is to write numbers on squares of paper, and tape them in a large (15 feet across) circle on the floor.  Make sure that you do not have more than 1 person per paper square.  Play music and encourage people to dance and go around the circle.  After a minute or so, stop the music, make sure everyone has found a number, and pick a corresponding number out of a box.  Call the number, and the person who is standing on that number wins a cake!  If you have many donations, you can call more than 1 number at a time.

Really, this couldn’t be more simple! Just ask for volunteers to make some goodies, and have this walk before a big game….or better yet, why not ask if it can be half time fun? Charge a dollar a ticket, and keep everyone dancing!

You can find cellophane bags with paw prints or bones at the local craft store. Your group can make the treats at home or find a church or school that will donate their kitchen for the day. You will be able to make more treats with more people helping.  All ingredients should be easily found at your local grocery store.

Keep in mind to stay away from using chocolate or raisins as they can be poisonous to dogs.

Your group could either take pre-orders or set up your dog bakery at a craft sale or sporting event.

Your doggy treat fundraiser would match up well with a number of other animal-friendly fundraisers.

If you want to raise money with this idea, consider raffling off some of the books, having a silent auction for some book related items, or having a free-will offering for the refreshments served.
