Why couldn't you get a job. I'm fourteen and I have a job.

Could you set up a website for donations explaining why you want to go and set up donations? I'm not sure how that is done, but know people who have done that. If you attend church, perhaps you could put a posting in the bulletin. I think at 14 in my particular state you can do some jobs, like bagging groceries, but theres not a lot of options. Good luck.

Well fundraisers aren't appropriate because you are trying to raise money for your own benefit and people who buy from fund raising sales think their money is going to charity so that wouldn't be right. If you are a babysitter you should be able to get enough business that way. Call up some of your friends and start a network where if they can't babysit when they are asked one night they can refer you, and offer to do the same for them.
