Some Primary Fundraising Estimates

Candy Bar sales – Ongoing
Students can buy boxes of candy bars from a local vendor and sell the candy, using the profit for their trip.
A box costs $25 and will “retail” for $50,
a student could make $100 with the profit from 4 boxes.
STUDENTS MAY NOT SELL CANDY IN CHURCH ON SUNDAYS.

Need: a parent to take candy bar box orders periodically and pick up from the vendor.

Tent Sale (Juarez)-- Late May 05
Usually $2000-$2500

Pledged Car Wash-- early June 05
Some random numbers:
Concordia raised ~$20,000 on 500 cars (made $40/car)
If we made $25/car on 250 cars, we’d make $6250.
$30/car on 250 cars would be $7500

The high ends of those numbers still leave us at $14735, about $5000 short of $19700.

Some, of course, are linked to an individual student’s initiative (candy bars sales for example).
Note that Advent and Lent dinners are not included. If they don’t make money as fundraisers, we might as well plug them as a “you’re money’s no good here” servant event.
