Project: Fundraising

Image from Project

Background: In order to raise the necessary funds to go to Haiti, one or more class fundraisers needed to be developed to supplement the individual fundraising done by the students.

Objectives:• For each fundraiser provide:

• A description of how it will work.• Possible dates/locations• Cost/benefit analysis

Findings/Solutions:• Donation-based merry-go-round rides

would be the easiest to implement and would provide valuable test data. Other fundraisers could be integrated into it as well.
