Some good causes to fund raise for?

Hey guys,
So I'm in the school senior council team, and this year we haven't had that many fund raisers, I want to organize a fundraising event, but I'm not sure on what causes to do this for. What have your schools fund-raised for, or what causes do you think are worthy to support? Also what activities should we provide to gain the sufficient amount of money to give to these causes.. I was wondering maybe a casual clothes day, what do you guys think?

All suggestions are appreciated.

Thank you.

Casual Clothes Days  work best (by giving a gold coin donation)
Fun runs?
40 hour famine?

There are plenty of foundations you can pick, just have a little google.
Melbourne University-Science-Second year

Am taking in students for CHEMISTRY and MATHS METHODS tuition for 2014 as well as first year chemistry. If interested, pm me. Flexible with location.

Definitely agree with Casual Clothes day but as a rule of thumb (well for my school anyway)
We make the Casual Clothes Day on a Tuesday since we can remind them to bring money on Monday whereas the rest of the days feel too far away and Friday will just be rowdy :P

Raise funds so that your school can buy ATARNotes Study Guides for all their students, I will bet all the money I have in my bank account that your school's median ATAR will skyrocket this year.

A truly worthy 'charity' that does some amazing work with money going directly to those in need, as opposed to lots of other organisations that have hefty overhead/admin costs
