Sample Response: Friends: What should we do to raise money? A bake sale will help us raise money for the local food bank because bake sales can attract people from outside the school community. The neighboring town was able to raise over $5,000 at their bake sale. Although the car wash is a good idea, people are more interested in buying homemade food. I strongly urge you to vote for the bake sale.
