<p>I heard that it is common for people to fundraise for summer educational opportunities. How many people fundraise for summer programs and research?
How do you do it (what method do you carry out)?</p>
<p>not a bump.</p>
<p>I'm also interested in hearing what people generally do to raise money. I was thinking about going on a Habitat trip, but I'd have to raise some $1000.</p>
<p>You can contact a local company and ask them to sponsor you. I think that this works best if you are fundraising for a really prestigious program, b/c businesses are more likely to give you lots of $$. You have to show that you really deserve their donation by writing a letter (or something more creative, if you can come up with any ideas.) I've never done it, but I know a girl who has.</p>
<p>If all else fails, you can always get a job. Good luck!</p>
<p>^hmm ill try that.</p>
