• Sell "Strike Out ALS" bracelets or hats, available from the ALS Association of Indiana.
• Sponsor a "Jeans Day" at your school. For schools with dress codes, students are allowed to wear jeans to school by donating $1.
• Start a "Penny War" at your school. The classroom collecting the most change wins a ice cream or pizza party. The rest is donated!
