Easy Fund Raising Ideas

Question: Could a 13 year old start a fundraiser?

I am 13 and I LOVE kids and I just feel like I’m meant to do something to help these kids that are deathly ill. I just feel like it’s the right thing to do!
I know there is all kinds of websites and organizations where you could give money to, but could I make my own? Like maybe LCKF (Lindsey’s Cancer Kids Foundation) and maybe I could have bake sales or even start up fundraising in local schools including my own, or have jars at cash registers for loose change.
I’d love to do this! With all the money I would buy lots of toys, get better balloons, and I would buy tons of colored paper and make cards for the kids!
I’d love to do this! Is there any way I could?

Also, could you give me ideas on how to raise some money? I know there is babysitting, lawn mowing, etc. but could you give me some unique ideas or maybe some websites (no scams, just websites for teens with ideas on how to raise money)

THANKS SO MUCH!

Answer: I believe the youngest fundraiser ever was a 9 year old. There really is no age limit to start, as long as you have sound advice from adults who understand how these things work. it can be a lot of work behind the scenes you are not aware of.

But I give you kudos for thinking outside the box. Try asking at school you school counselor if there are any programs in your area to help youngsters get involved in fund raising or youth programs.
