I don't really live in a safe area I also am autistic so that limits what I can do, I have no clue. Got any suggestions?
Umm PLEASE don't do the things Nate told you to do and here's why. 1st off, asking family for money isn't always the best way to get money. Sure, sometimes a family member might give you some cash as a gift but you shouldn't try to take advantage of people. Thats rude. Even when I do work around my grandparents house I don't expect to get paid all the time because I am there to help them because I love them. Even if they offer me money I rarely take it because we are family and they shouldn't have to pay for that. 2nd, I can't even begin to explain how wrong going door to door and asking for money for a FAKE charity is!!!!! You would be lying! If anyone found out you would probably get in tons of trouble! There might even be certain city ordinances that prohibit stuff like that! Its just so wrong to lie to people like that on SO many levels! What if an ACTUAL charity came by the next day and the person was like, "Well I just donated to a charity so I can't donate to yours." that means you would be taking away money from people who actually need it! You can do other things to earn money. You can sell some of your old stuff, you can start an online business selling candles or other stuff that you can make at home. You can advertise on craigslist and also on Facebook pages. Start a business where you walk dogs at a (Safe) Park. Start a business where you offer to mow lawns. You mentioned you have pets, so have you ever thought of breeding those pets and then selling the babies? It can be very lucrative. There are lot's of options out there, just no easy ways to get a bunch of money fast, anything is going to take work.
At 11, you have almost no options; you're too young to get a proper job, and to babysit.
You could see if you could earn money locally doing jobs such as mowing lawns or walking dogs, but you're not going to make much.
Ask your grandparents or other family members.
But if your not scared to do something kind of sketchy. You can get an envelope and print out a flyer and go door to door and tell people that your raising money for an Autism organization. Go door to door and ask people to donate to your cause. You'll get a few dollars for every person that you ask. Or go to a better neighborhood and ask those people.
How much do you need and for what exactly?
