You can actually have tons of ideas for a fundraiser if you're creative enough. Sometimes, it depends on the event that you're raising funds for. If you're raising funds for educational purposes, then you should come up with fundraisers catered especially to the students, like conducting talent shows, selling candy bars, books, silicone bracelets, teen discos, babysitting, sponsored outings... mainly events that students can participate in. If you're raising funds for political purposes, think of events that are appropriate like auctions, sports tournaments, custom t-shirts, social events, or grants.
The list goes on and on, you just have to know what will work for you, and what will suit your organization. If you're stuck, turn to the Internet for more options. There are lots of resources and sites dedicated to giving you fundraising ideas. Keep in mind though, that you can't just decide to do a certain fundraiser, and just hope for the best. It takes some analysis and careful weighing of pros and cons to be able to pull off a successful fundraiser. Just be sure that whatever you decide on, it will draw the interest of a paying crowd.
