Here are a few ideas we used...
#1 Line of credit
#2 Small loan from my credit union
#3 Obtained a 0% interest credit card (for one year) and used that for smaller fees (be sure you can pay it off in one year or the interest will be outrageous!!)
#4 Fundraiser - Yard Sale - may people donated.
#5 Fundraiser - Cookbooks - family and friends gave me family friendly recipes; I typed them in since that would give me a discount; then ordered 200 and have almost all of them sold. This was our BEST fundraiser yet.
#6 Selling things on Ebay
#7 Intend to do a "Current Fundraising" fundraiser in the spring
#8 Knitting dishcloths and selling them (they're very unique as I'm just learning how to knit; each one has their very own little birthmark somewhere in the pattern!
Makes them more unique!)
#9 Bake Sale
#10 Second job - this lasted for about nine months.
Hope some of the ideas are helpful!
