Fundraisers?

So I have a dilemma. I have run out of fundraising ideas, besides the basics. I need more ideas that are more creative and fun so more people will want to go. also I need a way to get word out that I'm fundraising so more people will show up. I still need about $12,000 by October if I want to go and I can't rely on the scholarship because I wont know if I won until October. I really want to visit Japan. It's a once in a life chance and it's one of my biggest dreams. Please help me out :D share this with friends and family!

Hello :)

Hello I am Samantha. I am 16 years old and I want to travel to Japan to study abroad. There was a Japaneses club at my school because my 5th grade teacher was from Japan and she wanted people to know another country. Since then I am in love with Japan. I discovered that I could study abroad there and I jump at the opportunity. I was a little late and now I am short money. My parents agreed to let me go to Japan only if I paid my own way there. I have been doing car washes, bake sales, yard sales, and a few other fundraisers but haven't made much profit.
