Raise money by selling food and beverages. Sell logo’d merchandise like t-shirts, sweatshirts, silicone bracelets, and hats. Provide entertainment before the big game with music (pep band, local garage band, etc.) and festivities (cheerleaders, flag football game, dunk tank, bonfire, etc).

Have you ever looked around you at a hometown football game and wondered WHO will clean the mess up?  Why not offer to do this for a fee to benefit your cause.  Go to a local college, high school, sports complex, etc…  Explain what your cause is and where the money you are raising will be applied.   Ask if they would pay you and members of your group to a do a good job cleaning up and removing the mess after home games or tournaments.  Let them know up front what services you will be offering, and make sure you have enough work force to do the job well.
