Here are some fundraisers that kids in my area have done. Note that one group has been fundraising for a friend with CS for 5 years so the events at the end were done through an experienced network:
bake sale, car wash, corn hole tournament, PS3 tournament, back to school sale (sold hs logo school supplies), spaghetti dinner, community garage sale/craft fair, improv comedy night.
These require a great deal of organization, but not necessarily a lot of money upfront. The car wash was done by contacting a local business for use of the parking lot and water connection and the cost of soap, buckets and sponges. We made $700 in a few hours.
