Does anyone know of any good sites that can help me with my paper on, Has Student Fund-Raising Gone Too Far?? I have 1000 words already need 750 more and I am stuck like Chuck. Any help would be appreciated.

Are you for or against student fundraising?

What is your thesis statement?

Well I believe that fundraising has gone too, however, I believe that with todays economy it is needed to help schools gain supplies or even support events.

This is my first paragraph:
Everyday schools from Elementary to High School students use fundraising for funding school projects, activities, and even school supplies. They can also help with sponsoring community events and organizations that support a variety of causes. Fundraising can consists of anything from selling cookie dough to selling Christmas gift wrapping paper. There are many benefits to using fundraisers in a school and there are also many dangers. Has fundraising gone too far, some might say it has, this paper will further detail fundraising, and it will list the types of fundraisers, the uses for fundraising, the benefits, and the disadvantages.

You need to state an opinion -- one way or another -- in your thesis statement.

Apparently you support student fundraisers because that's the only way schools are going to get the things they need.

You could detail the benefits of student fundraising. What do they provide the schools?

If I post my paper would you read it and give me some more advice on what I could add, again I am about 750 short.

I've already suggested ways to expand your paper.

Please do some more work on it, following my advice. After you've done that, I'll be happy to read your paper.
