You may be thinking that you can put together an educational

PLANNING THIS FUNDRAISER IS LIKE PLANNING AN AUCTION. YES, YOU MAY BE
ABLE TO DO IT, BUT UNLESS YOU'VE ATTENDED SEVERAL SUCCESSFUL AUCTIONS
YOURSELF OR SOUGHT THE ADVICE OF SOMEONE WHO HAS, THERE ARE SO MANY
DETAILS THAT YOU MAY NEVER EVEN THINK OF. _

So, For Only $45 Out Of The Potential Thousands Of Dollars You Can
Raise, Why Not Bypass All Of The Legwork - PTO Ideas Has Already Done
It For You.

PTO Ideas has provided you with ideas for planning an event Please
note that while this ebook provides you with a plan to obtain $12,000
in sponsorships, actual amounts obtained by the students may be either
more or less. While we believe this fundraiser to be very easy to
organize and highly profitable, we must state that these are the
opinions of PTO Ideas and it's publisher. We have tested this
fundraiser and proven it's potential; however, we must also state that
dollar amounts and percentages are examples and estimates and are not
guaranteed. Expenses are projected and intended to be minimal.

Last year, the Linscott-Rumford School of MA ran the PTO Ideas'
Educational Challenge as a Spelling Challenge and raised $8,500. This
year they adapted it as a Math Challenge and "65% of students
participated in the Fundraiser and raised $7200 ." _(Linscott-Rumford
School, MA, October 2010) _

"Over 160 Students financially particpated in The Spelling Challenge
and the entire student population was tested with the challenge words.
The school RAISED OVER $8,500 ." _(Linscott-Rumford School, MA,
October 2009) _

"...We ran [the PTO Ideas' Spelling Challenge] for one week and
RAISED $5,000 . We have almost 300 students. The teachers and
students really enjoyed it and we are talking of doing a math one in
the fall. ... It was the easiest fundraiser we have EVER done!" _(Jean
from Highcroft Ridge Elementary, MO, 2009) _

"The PTO Ideas' Spelling Challenge really does work. The students
exceeded our expectations. The students enjoyed it, the teachers loved
it, and the parents are asking to do it again next year! We have about
208 students and RAISED JUST OVER $13,000 in about 2 weeks. Expenses
were under $300, which meant we were able to hold onto about 98% of
the money donated by families!" _ (Vicki, Wyman School, MA, October
