It may not sound like a lot, but you could raise a good amount if you do a penny/change drive. We did that in SGA and we raised like $200. To put that in context we did it for one week (really more like 4 days), only accepted donations during lunch which was like 20 mins, and my high school was only like 108 students. It’s really cheap to do, people are mostly willing to give change because it doesn’t seem like a lot, and if you want to go the extra mile you can see if you can get the teachers in groups together to do donation matching, so in my case if we did that since the students raised $200 the teachers would pool together another $200 for a total of $400 raised. You can also make it a fun challenge. We did class wars (Juniors vs Seniors), but you could also do it with things like Homeroom classes or Boys vs Girls. People love competitions.
