Do-It-Yourself Fundraiser Of The Month This fundraising idea is great for schools with dress codes or strict clothing rules. Its like a big dress down day. First set a list of 'permissions' that you and your committee/group is going to sell. Such as $1.00 to wear normal t-shirts, $1.00 to wear any kind of hair style, $1.00 to wear sneakers, $1.00 to drink pop/water/liquid in class, or $5.00 for all grub pass, things like that. Its better if you sell things that the kids aren't usually allowed to do. Set a date. Sending flyers home to the parents, or just placing them on bulletin boards in homerooms will make it so everyone is aware of the cost, what date and etc. Make sure to get name tag like stickers for the day of the event to clarify to the teachers who has paid for what. on "Grub Day" set up a table where the doors are to collect the money from the students, and hand out personalized name tags with the exact thing that the student paid for.

Non-Profit In The Spotlight The Fisher House program is a private-public partnership that supports America's military in their time of need. Because members of the military and their families are stationed worldwide and must often travel great distances for specialized medical care, we donate "comfort homes," built on the grounds of major military and VA medical centers. These homes enable family members to be close to a loved one at the most stressful times - during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury. There is at least one Fisher House at every major military medical center to assist families in need. The average charge is less than $10 per family per day, with many locations offering rooms at no cost.

Interesting or Fun Facts The first shopping cart was introduced on June 4, 1937, the invention of Sylvan Goldman, owner of the Piggly-Wiggly supermarket chain in Oklahoma City. With the assistance of Fred Young, a mechanic, Goldman constructed the first shopping cart, basing his design on that of a wooden folding chair. They built it with a metal frame and added wheels and wire baskets, and advertised the invention as part of a new ?No Basket Carrying Plan.? The invention did not catch on immediately. Men found them effeminate; women found them suggestive of a baby carriage. "I've pushed my last baby buggy," offended women informed him. After hiring several male and female models posing as shoppers to push his new invention around his store and demonstrate their utility, as well as greeters to explain their use, shopping carts became extremely popular and Goldman became a multimillionaire.
