UK Elephant raised a good bit of her ALC6 money by baking cookies. She packaged them in little baggies with a sticker on each baggie with some basic information about the funding goals and her fund-raising web site URL. Sold them at the university where she works and the one where her bf works. I think she did that from a little table with flyers about the event. I don't know if she got any further donations that way, but the cookies sold well. Of course, she bakes really gooooood cookies! Aside from that, it's persistent nagging, emailing friends and family with stories about how training is going, personal stories about people affected by the disease the funding will go towards finding a cure for, thank you notes ...
