4. Promote fundraiser through parent letters, posters and community announcements.
   
5. Hold a "kick-off" rally, which educates the kids on the fundraising programs, and build enthusiasm to reach fundraising goals.
   
6. Start the fundraiser!
   
7. Monitor progress and provide encouragement and incentives to keep the kids motivated.
