Anyone got ideas for practical fundraiser ideas for tech class

When you look down the hall at the other 'special classes',like art for instance, you see fundraisers like square art, and framed art collections that parents can purchase The proceeds then go to the art dept for future supplies. The square art company sends the paper to the art dept at our school, and then makes a magnet or whatever out of the childs work and the parents buy it. Is there anything like that when it comes to tech classes?

Do computer generated art work and make magnets, scrapbook pages, iron on transfers for Tshirts or tea towels, framed art, make jewelry out of old computer components (those little screen parts with the copper feet" make great computer 'bugs"), have students offer computer services to teachers (coupon books).

I would think for $50-$100 bucks in investment you could generate a ton of money.

You could also look for a business partner to support your projects or write some grants. Good Luck, N.
